Fashionable shoes - with ribbons

Send

Flip flops, ballet shoes, brogues - it doesn’t matter! The main thing: low heel and tape around the ankles. And pleasant: you can make such shoes with your own hands!

We offer a choice of several options:

SEA STRIP
Sew a chain of approx. 50 cm. Opposite the toe, sew a bow from a rudik or braid of approx. 20 cm. Pass the handlebar or braid 1.5 m long through the chain, wrap around the ankles and tie.

GREEN Grasshopper
Thanks to the elastic tape, these ballet shoes give a sporty look. By the way, such shoes are more convenient for long walks. Cut the length necessary for the V-shaped fastener from the elastic tape. At the ends of the elastic tape, make a welt loop. Sew it to the side of the shoes, as shown in the photo. Make a “fastener” of three beads of glass beads. Sew the rest of the elastic tape in the heel area.

WALK BY THE COAST
Ballet shoes can be bought in any color. Pink and white are a great option for a romantic outfit tailored specifically for a vacation at sea.
HOW TO MAKE
YOU WILL NEED Ballet shoes, measuring tape, scissors, skin needle, approx. 2.20 m pink satin ribbon, 9 loops from hooks, threads for sewing and for sewing on ballet shoes.

STEP 1 Fold the thread four times and tightly sew the hooks with a buttonhole stitch. At the same time tighten each stitch with a loop.
