Signing UpStep 1: Materials
For this project, grab:
- a pair of lace-ups
- some elastic (doesn't have to be as wide as in the picture, but how can you not love that!) I used less than 1/2 yd, but if you use thin elastic, you might want to use more than one strip
- a needle
- some heavy-duty button thread

Where did you get the elastic like that?
(I love your instructables by the way, they're always so creative and useful)
They still have thick ruffled stuff though.
A+
One of those inventions that will be taken by top brands, it it's not already done …
Thanks
