Friends, hello everyone!

Surely many of you have jeans at home that you don't really want to wear, but it's a pity to throw them away. Is this a familiar situation? If so, today I will show you how you can sew very simple slippers for the house in a hurry.

You don't even need a sewing machine, everything can be done by hand. But, if you still do not want to sew with your hands, and you have a machine, then you can also sew on it.

For the manufacture of slippers, we used:

· Old jeans;

· Thin cardboard;

· Pencil, scissors;

· Slippers;

· Glue "Moment", hot glue;

· Cling film;

· Thick threads and a needle;

· Satin ribbon and plastic sheets (optional).

Step 1.

We put slippers on the cardboard, circle and cut out.

Step 2.

Cut out 4 bases for the sneakers from the jeans. The size is slightly larger than cardboard bases.

Step 3.

Apply glue to the cardboard, spread it with a brush and glue cling film on both sides.

Step 4.

We glue the cardboard base to the fabric.

Step 5.

Cut out the template for the top of the sneaker from paper. If you cannot draw yourself, you can rip up old, unnecessary slippers and make a template.

Step 6.

Cut out 4 upper parts from jeans and sew them together in pairs on the flat side.

Step 7.

We sew the base of the slippers with a small fold with thick threads. But not completely, but only to the place where the upper part will be sewn.

Step 8.

Sew the upper part to the base.

Step 9.

We take a satin summer 80 cm by 5 cm and make a flower or a bow out of it. If you don't want to make a flower yourself, then you can glue the finished ones.

Step 10.

We glue several decorative leaves to the flower, and glue everything to the sneakers.

The hot glue holds porous materials fairly firmly, especially fabrics. But, if you don't trust the glue, then the flower can be sewn on.

The slippers are ready, it took about 1 hour to make.
