Fat Bottom Upcycled Shoe Clips

These shoe clips are a decortaive accessory made from the bottom of plastic bottles

First, find a couple of platic bottles and after washing and cleaning them, cut the bottoms off by pressing the bottle inward and cutting at the seam.

Now, cut again, diagonally and then horizontally along the plastic bottle bootom. What should be left is a flower shape.

This is the correct shape

Now you are ready to decorate! I have used paint and vintage buttons, but really, you could use all sorts of things: glitter, decoupage, fabric, what ever!

Once you have decorated, you are ready to glue on your clip.
I use clips intended for clip on earrings, so they will not harm your shoe or clothes.

I have not found a superglue yet that will adhere metal to plastic without quickly falling apart, so I put a tiny little piece of fabric between the clip and the plastic bottom to ensure it is secure.

And that's it, you now have a really rad, new, upcycled accessory!
