Description
I cant believe that I did such a good job editing this image! Anyways, heres the goodies:I made this out of an old shoe. YES, you heard me.
Ive sewn it all by hand using dental floss.
I used regular sting for the lace up.
To have the front keep its shape, I twisted off pieces of a coathanger and sewed it into the front part.
COST: ZERO DOLLARS

Ah, well, make sure the shoe has eyelets for laces and cut as close to the sole as possible. Measure your waist right in the middle, and take about four inches off of that so that when you pull the underbust tight it doesnt try to overlap and hang loose. Youll want to sew some sort of boning or wire into at least the front so it keeps its shape. I twisted some coat hangers into the appropriate size. Hope that helps!

You can use anything you want as long as its durable and not too stechy. I used a strip from an old pair of jeans
