You know there are times when we've reached the optimum stress level during the festival's peak countdown, and everything on the shopping racks doesn't really seem eye-pleasing. That goes the same for someone as choosy as me. At such moments of urgency, I opt to get handy and creative with the stuff around the house.
What you need:
A pair of basic pumps, a pair of oriental knots, scissors, thread, needle, fabric glue
You can get the oriental knots at the old sewing/handcraft stores at Chinatown.
I've got this pair of handmade grandma shoes from Kaohsiung, Taiwan after seeing a hole underneath my own pair. For the oriental knots/kungfu buttons, choose either analogous or complementary colors as compared with your shoes. Stitch the knots/stick them on with fabric glue and you're done!
Now you have a new pair of great walking partners for your CNY outfits!
