$2 shoes...whooo!

I was at Wally world a while back, and I spotted these in a cart (or buggy, depending where you're from) for $2 on clearance. $2!!!!! So they came home with me, and I also got a pair for my sisters for a v-day treat. I got 2 pairs for myself. I can't even remember the last time I bought shoes. Well, I bought flip flops last summer, but not sure if that counts. I'm not a shoe-buying fan. Anyway, I thought these were nice, but could use a little spice. 


So, I made a ribbon flower. I gathered the ribbon on one side, and sewed it all up. I added a button on the front, and sewed a clip-on earring on the back (got a pkg of 8 clips for $3 at hobby lobby-the pkg cost more than the shoes, hahahaha), that way I can take it off or change them if I want. 







One sister got yellow shoes, so she's getting the blue "flowers".
As a bonus, they are REALLY comfortable. Thanks, wally-world!

  1. I cute. I always see cute shoes that I don't get because they aren't what I am looking for. Next time I will just spice them up. Thanks for sharing!

  3. Those are very cute!! Love how they are simple and don't take away from the pattern of the shoe.

  4. Ok, I love these and now I want some! Soooo cute! I’m a big fan of cute sneakers verses wearing my workout shoes when I’m out and about. I think I need to do this to a few of my shoes too.

    Hope you have a lovely weekend.
