To make beaded booties, you will need the following materials:
- A pair of plain booties or shoes
- Beads of your choice
- Thread or beading wire
- Needle or beading needle
- Scissors
- Glue (optional)
- Choose a pair of plain booties or shoes. Make sure they are clean and free of any dirt or debris.
- Choose the beads you want to use for your design. You can use any type of bead, such as seed beads, glass beads, or crystal beads.
- Cut a length of thread or beading wire. Make sure it is long enough to go around the circumference of the booties with some extra length to work with.
- Thread the needle or beading needle with the thread or beading wire.
- Begin to string beads onto the thread or wire. Create a pattern or design of your choice. You can use one type of bead or mix and match different beads.
- Once you have enough beads strung onto the thread or wire, wrap it around the bootie. Secure the ends of the thread or wire by tying a knot or using a small amount of glue to hold it in place.
- Repeat steps 3-6 until you have covered the entire bootie with beads.
- Once you have beaded both booties, trim any excess thread or wire.
- If you used glue to secure the thread or wire, allow it to dry completely before wearing your beaded booties.
