New Life For Old Shoes

 I bought these shoes at a yard sale for my daughter a few months ago.

  Her favorite color is pink, so I decided to pretty them up for her.

First they needed a good cleaning so I threw the shoes into the washer 

then I scrubbed the toes with a magic eraser. 

The pink laces came from another pair of shoes 

which I brightened up with Oxi Clean. 

Now for the fun part!

I sewed on some felt flower buttons I purchased ($2.50), a little scrap of yellow ribbon

and some small round buttons I already had on hand.

Once sewed on, I applied a little glue to the underside of the petals 

 just to make sure they don't fall off.

A whole new look for just a couple bucks!
