Step One:
Cut 2 (or three, if you’re feeling adventurous) strips of Scotch Colors and Patterns Duct Tape.
Fold them in half so that there is no adhesive exposed.
*When folded, strips should decrease in size. The longest strip should be about 5 and a half inches long.
Step Two:
Fold each side of the strip over until they meet in the middle. Tape it down to secure. Repeat with each strip
Step Three:
Apply a roll of tape (or “donut”) to the first/longest strip in order to secure the strips together.
Step Four:
You can cut your bow to your desired width (depends on the vamp of your shoe)
Step Five:
Cut a strip of tape (of medium length) and fold it in thirds (vertically) to make a thin strip to be the future center of the bow
Step Six:
Wrap the strip around the middle of the bow.
Step Seven:
Cut the thin strip to desired length and secure with tape.
Step Eight:
Open up a shoe clip and position it at the bottom middle of the bow.
Step Nine:
Secure the clip with tape.
Step Ten:
Clip the bow onto the vamp of your shoe and BAM your flats are now ready for Back To School.
Step One:
Cut 3 long strips of Scotch Colors and Patterns Duct Tape.
Fold them in half so that there is no adhesive exposed. Repeat and attach another strip to make a thick panel.
*When folded, strips should decrease in size.
Step Two:
Tape 2 panels together in the center. Fold each panel over until they meet in the middle. Use tape “donuts” to tape it down to secure.
Step Three:
Repeat Step Two with each size of panels.
Step Four:
Apply rolls of tape (or “donut”) to each layer in order to secure the layers together.
Step Five:
Attach the layers together.
Step Six:
Cut a strip of tape (of medium length) and fold it in thirds (vertically) to make a thin strip to be the future center of the bow
Step Seven:
Wrap the strip around the middle of the bow.
Cut the thin strip to desired length and secure with tape.
Step Eight:
Open up 2 safety pins and position them at the middle of the bow. Cut little strips of tape in order to tape them down.
Step Nine:
Tape the safety pins to the bows and attach the bow to your backpack!
