Those are seriously cute, I really want to have a go at this now :D

Thanks! And you should, it was a lot more fun and easy than I expected.

Those came out really nice, and the fabric is probably more comfortable than pleather straps!

Thanks! From the little walking around I did when I finished them, they seem like it.
The real test comes tomorrow when I do a photoshoot (with a few other things I'll be posting soon), and then a meet after!

So, the follow up to this is they are only as comfortable as the base shoe you start with. I always forget that the hell portion of flats don't get along with my ankles, but the straps and additions were totally comfortable.

Zomg! So very cute! I personally got into making custom shoe clips that matched my dress and pair them with simple pumps. It works for the classic, not so sure for the sweet type!

I normally would have just done that, but I figured I might as well give this a try. I figured if nothing else, I could just have the bows on the shoes if the straps didn't work.
