I know, I know, here I go again with my zippers!! BUT at least it’s not a zipper flower. this time….. Anyways, I found these basic gray (haha, get it?) ballet flats on clearance for a few bucks at TJ Maxx. I added a double zipper ruffle to the front and they went from drab to fab in a matter of minutes! And let me tell ya, I LOVE ’em. L.O.V.E. them.
I was a little worried that the ruffle might not work, but the ruffles actually turned out so much better than I thought!! Can I say it one more time, I love how these turned out!

I am now coveting these shoes. Great job!!
I absolutely LOVE those shoes! How did you attach the zipper and does it hurt the tops of your feet when you wear them? You seriously need to be selling these…I'd buy a pair in a heartbeat!
Happy V-Day weekend to you.

Love them…such a cute idea!
Keep posting stuff like this i really like it
So adorable and I missed these the first time around so I am thrilled that you linked up! Love them (and the creativity behind them even more).
That is so cute I can't hardly stand it. Did you attach the zipper with E6000 or something similar? I can't believe how well the color of the zipper matches the color of the shoes. It looks really nice.
Those shoes are beautiful!!!
XOOX
