DIY: Tribal Inspired Sandals

I was on the search for a new pair of flat sandals the other day. All the designs that caught my eye had some kind of decorative embellishment, that quite frankly I could have done myself and pay a fraction of the price. Enter this easy DIY. It is not a quick one, but watching TV shows on my DVR helped the time fly by. Here are the steps...

{materials: an old pair of sandals, embroidery floss, super glue, scissor (not pictured)}

{tie a small knot with the first color of embroidery floss}

{glue the knot to the sandal}

{wind around the sandal - knotting each new color to the next}

{end result}

In a little less than a month we’re having a fiesta in our backyard in celebration of my birthday.  I love Mexican everything, food, drinks, art, decor, etc so there was really no hesitation when trying to decide on a party idea.  I am on the search for a themed outfit that isn't too literal.  Here are a few great pieces that caught my eye.
