Embellished Sandals

Another spring means another pair of spruced up store-bought sandals around here :)
A trip to Walmart left me with these supplies:
 The sandals were $13, the buttons $1 each (washable too) and the pistachio shells were free from my craft stash.
The shoes are from the men's section which gives me all the comfort of being a man while the additions give me all the girliness I can ask for. The store-bought girly options often seem so uncomfortable, all plastic and super thin soles. While the guys get the real leather and cushier soles. Go figure. Luckily it's easy to get the best of both worlds. 
A better look of the sandals.
I drilled little holes in the shells and stitched everything on by hand. Voila!


I'm also considering stitching on a heel strap on these to make them even comfier. We'll see.
Spring can come anytime now as far as I'm concerned :) Do you like?
