So recently I acquired a pair of black glitter ballet flats, I wanted to dress them up some. But with what? I wanted to make something versatile and that I could change up. Then I remembered Shoe clips my mom used to buy me when I was little. This was also inspired by a deco supply pack I had bought from My Sister's Treasures. Which is owned by two of my best friends I've known since grade school. They make amazing jewelry and also are extraordinary face painters. I really like how they came out. I spent about 8 bucks total on my supplies and most of them I had all ready had in crafting box.
