You Capture: Peace

Is there anything more peaceful than a sunrise like this? There is something magical about the start of a new morning, kinda like a redo.

Love, Peace, Flip Flops Hand Stamped Necklace

Maybe if I post this necklace it will bring some warmer weather to Michigan. It has been so cold here.

The Peace, Love, Flip Flops necklace is a 7/8th inch sterling silver disc that has been hand stamped in script font. The necklace also includes an adorable sterling silver flip flop charm, both charms hang on a 18 inch sterling silver bead ball chain. If you would like to upgrade to a sterling silver snake chain it is an additional $4, please just leave a note at checkout and you will receive a invoice via pay pal.

Happy Monday friends!

How To Make Pretty Poppy Flower Shoe Clips

I love flower embellished flip flops but most often they are on really uncomfortable flip flops. I decided to make my own that I could attach to any of my favorite shoes. They also look adorable on my ballet flats.

Wanna make some for yours? Here is how I made them:

Materials:
Faux Suede or Mole skin type fabric 1/2 a yard or less
scissors
lighter
pearl
shoe clips (I ordered mine on Etsy)hot glue gun
needle
thread
felt


Step one: Cut out 4 different sized circles for each flower, and allow for some shrinking so go a bit larger than you want your flower to be. The circles do not have to be perfectly round.

Step two: Singe the edges of each circle with your lighter. Practice on a scrap to get the hang of it. Be careful not to get the fabric too close to the flame.
Step three: Stack your circles on top of each other to form a flower and then attach all together w/ needle and thread and finish w/ a pearl in the center.
Step four: Cut a circle of felt and sew your shoe clip to the felt. Next hot glue the felt to the back side of the flower.
Step five: (optional) for extra security I hand stitched the felt to the back of the flower even though it was glued.

You can make these pretty flowers in all different sizes, I made a few for my purse and also some hair pins. So fun and so girly! A really easy project but a bit time consuming.

And below the Love, Peace, Flip Flops necklace a new piece in my shop, so fun and for the gal that knows that life really is a bit better in flip flops!
