DIY Twinkling Toes

The LED Shoe Clips Will Light up Any Pair of Heels

These LED shoe clips are a perfect project to customize an old or plain pair of shoes. The clips are perfect for wearing at nighttime so your outfit can really sparkle, but they can also be worn in the daytime for a less dramatic look. The best thing about this project is that it is completely customizable, and since the light is placed behind whatever color fabric you plan to complement your oufit, you’ll never have to worry about clashing.

This easy soft-circuit project will have even those who consider themselves electronically challenged wondering why they never explored the wonderful world of wearable electronics earlier. The great thing about this project is that once you learn how to do it you can apply the same know-how and create any wearable lights. Some other examples of such projects include corsages, bowties, belts or even buttons. Stand out in front of any crowd with fabulous lighted clothing and these LED shoe clips will ensure that all eyes are on you.
