-Cut the plastic shopping bags in half from top to bottom. Then take three of the bags and hang them on a door handle and braid them; do this 4 times.
-Take the ends of the braided bags and use the candle to melt the ends into hard tips. Leave 2 straps with an unhardened end.
-Route these straps into the holes as shown in the pictures; tie the forward strap to the back cross strap and trim off the extra plastic.
-Under the shoe, melt the plastic strap tips with the candle and smush 'em flat, this will harden and hold the straps on the shoe.
