Another Shoe Fix, Chain Strap, DIY

Well, here we go again.
I had to save another  pair of heels from the trash can.
Dilemma

Broken Strap
These shoes first started out as a stand in for  a video I did, HERE.  
 I wasn't sure if I could save them. I have admired  different chain strap heels  for some time now,
and I  thought to myself "what do I have to loose, I can't wear them anyway,"
Messing them up wouldn't matter. 

New shoes were born.

Poor Shoe

 Cut

Punch a hole

 add your square jump rings

Get your two round jump rings
Measure the length of chain you want.
This took me several tries to get it just right.
Lay your chain out
Make each chain just slightly longer.
Then add the chain to your round jump rings.

 connect your round jump rings to one side of your clasp

 Then connect that round jump rings to the inside of the shoe

  you want the clasp on the outside of your shoe

I tried my shoes on several times and adjusted the chain to my ankle.

Don't get frustrated, this part may take about an hour.

done with that?

Now lets make them sparkle

 Tape off

* Glue and Glitter Steps*

 Add glue,

then Glitter ~let dry~

more glue and glitter ~let dry~

than a coat of glue to seal it.

 Almost done

 Now I wanted a sliver stripe

Tape off and repeat the *glue, glitter steps* from above

When dry~ Brush excess glitter with a clean brush.

Peel off tape.

Done
