DIY marc Jacobs mouse shoes!

Don't have $300 laying around for these beautiful Marc Jacobs mouse shoes? Don't worry I found this rad tutorial showing step by step how to make your own!
1. Gather supplies. Felt, needle & thread, craft glue, and shoes, of course. I used these cute old comfy flats, I got them for $5 from a thrift store.
2. Cut out 4 felt ear shapes, and 4 smaller ear shapes in a contrasting colour. Glue the smaller ear pieces to the larger ones, as shown.
3. Sew a couple of stitches in the bottom corner of the ears, attaching them to the shoe. This is just to hold them in place and secure them a little better. Then fold the ear over and put a little craft glue on it, sticking it down. I attached a little bow on one ear of each of mine.

4. Cut out 4 white eyes & 4 black circles to make the pupils. I also cut out two pink triangles to make noses.
