How to Sew Your Ballet Slippers  
HOW TO 

Tags: Ballet, Ballet Slippers, Sewing Ballet Slippers

When you buy your first pair of ballet shoes you quickly realize that you need to insert the elestic. This is a pretty painless task and here is how you can do it.

1.	Fold the heel of the shoe flat against the insole, creating a triangle with the point of the heel as the apex.
2.	Lay the elastic strap along the base of the triangle you have created.
3.	Tack both ends of the elastic to the inside of your slipper in this position; being careful to keep the cut ends facing the sole.
4.	Use the factory stitching along the drawstring as a guide. This will help ensure your drawstring remains free.
5.	Clip any excess elastic.
