Meowza! Leopard bow shoe clip-ons DIY

I am currently on the quest for the PERFECT leopard print flats. This quest is taking a while, mind you, because I'm notoriously picky; apparently just as much with shoes as I am with food. I hate bananas, but some of you knew that already.

While I am particular, I'm also impatient. To give me a quick touch of leopard on my toes, I whipped up some little clip-on bows to add some feline ferocity to my basic black pumps and flats.

You Will Need (5 things)

  • Black Ribbon
  • Scissors
  • Glue (or needle and thread)
  • Approximately 12 inches of leopard print Trim (mine's from M&J Trimming, but it's unfortunately not on their website. Try their ribbon instead.)
  • Clip Earrings back (not pictured)

Steps (7 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut trim or ribbon into two approximately 6 inch pieces.

  2. 2

    Glue down the middle on the wrong side.

  3. 3

    Fold over each end of the trim, and add more glue if needed.

  4. 4

    Wrap a piece of black ribbon around the middle of the bow, gluing ends on the back of the bow. Secure with a clip and let dry overnight. You could also opt to sew the trim and ribbon together instead of gluing.

  5. 5

    The next day...

  6. 6

    Glue clip-on earring backs to the back of both ribbons. Let dry, and then clip onto your shoes.

  7. 7

    Purrfect. (Sorry. I had to say it.)
