Starburst Wrappers? Ballet Flats? they go together.. how?

.. with a little mod podge and a lot of scissor action! Yep, I decided to enter the craft challenge over at Craftster: “Footwear Face Lift”. I had this idea awhile ago, but didn’t actually get off my butt and do it.. so this challenge was a great way to get me going! So I went over to Nordstrom Rack and found some metallic-y ballet flats in my size for $11.90.. perfect!
This is what they looked like before:

Then after TONS of starburst wrappers, mod podge, and so much scissor action that my fingers were sore, they were magically transformed into these!


I am amazed they came out so well, and they are definitely safe for wearing (yep, the mod podge holds up just fine!) so I’ll probably wear them everywhere! Yay! I’m very excited, and kinda nervous.. voting is tomorrow! ee!
