STEP 1: Cut 1 m of transparent nylon thread (0.25 mm), fold it in half and tie a knot at the end. Stitch it into the leather of
the shoe and thread on a Swarovski Bead art. 5540 12 mm Jet and a crimping bead. Thread it back through the
Swarovski Bead and back through the leather of the shoe. Repeat this step with other Swarovski Beads mentioned
on the material list. Follow the design as shown in the illustrations or create your own pattern.
STEP 2: Using tweezers to pick up the stones, glue all the Swarovski Flat Backs mentioned in the material list onto the shoe
as shown in the illustrations.
