Let's look at what A Style means

Style is something that stands out to be unique in which something is expressed, created, or presented.

In other words, style is about the uniquenes and presentation of an ideas, It's what makes something memorable.

My own special style is creating something out of nothing, I like using my time for meaningful things. So guys firstly welcome to steemit engagement challenge season 19 and my engagement challenge start with steemladies.
Get ready to be inspired by the power of my creativity. I am so excited to share with you my latest recycle craft, where I transformed my old jeans into a one beautiful shoe and a handbag. Since I am a very resourceful person I was able make something new from discarded material then I create something useful and functionable.

Let's look at my style

IMG_20240707_231733_478.jpg

Since the economy is not friendly, I developed a different style in me, I no longer trash old items, what I do with them is to recycle the waste product and I make use of them, by so doing, I am always happy that I don't spend money.

Fashion is part of style and here I decided to make my shoe and bag so as to show you all my style.

What I did was to make use of the available items at home and I come up with this beautiful shoe and bag

let's check out the the material I use

IMG_20240707_152027_442.jpg

For example this old jeans of mine has been in my closet for years and I have not been using it anymore and to be is wasteful and I needed a jean shoe and a bag to use so creating something from it came to my mind and I decided to make use of it since it is my own style.

I won't only write on the style, without showing you the steps I use in case anyone would love to make one for herself.

Before you would be able to achieve this, is a must you will have to make use of the following items which i will list out.

  • Sewing needle and thread
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Bead
  • Soul of a shoe [ footbed]

This few items will help you achieve it.

I don't know who wants to adopt my own way of style, but let's check it out and watch carefully to see the outcome of my design.

the steps I used to achieve my hand bag and shoe

IMG_20240707_231823_433.jpg

What I did was to gather my materials, I stretch out the jeans, cut the down side of the jean.

When I was done with that, I open it wide by losing the thread at the side, then use pencil and stitch the measurements that I will use in covering the the footbed.

After getting the measurements, I trim it out and I make it two that's the complete pair of a shoe.

Then I use glue to on the footbed and keep it to dry, do same to the jean material that I trim out the measurements and I keep them aside to dry.

This kind of glue, you don't use it immediately, you have to keep it for some minutes for it to dry for a perfect work done.

When it was dry and ready to be used, I use the jean and glue it to the soul of the shoes and I make sure is well glue together. The did the same thing to both legs.

When I was done, I needed to close the ankle with a rop or elastic for perfection and balancing. I make use of the needle and thread, then get a black elastic shoe lace and sew it round the angle so that one can be able to adjust it at any time.

IMG_20240707_172251_080.jpg

IMG_20240707_171645_313.jpg

When the was done, I needed to sew the shoes all round so that it won't get loss, I use the thread and needle and sew and all round, at this stage the shoe was 90% ready to be used.

IMG_20240707_202352_493.jpg

IMG_20240707_182319_729.jpg

You can see how it fit my legs, I still need to design the shoe since is a female shoe, I have to make more beautiful, so what I did was to keep it at this point and I start making the hand bag so that it can match with the shoes anytime I want to wear them.

the making of the bag

IMG_20240708_080510_353.jpg

The bag aspect is very simple, I cut the both trouser legs, lose the side thread then I join both side together and I see it with the needle and thread, then at the adge, I sew it very well so that it won't get lose. All this sewing was at the bad side, it was when I finished sewing that I turned to the good side.

When I was done sewing the bag, I needed to fixed the hand, so I cut the waist band of the trouser and I form a bag handle with it. At the point the bag and the shoes was 90% ready

IMG_20240707_210136_490.jpg

It was time to beautiful the show and the bag, I use the jean and bead to create design, I needed to form a flowering shape, so Trac a paper and I use it as the base, then place in the jean and have the shape I was looking for.

IMG_20240707_222236_307.jpg

I then use bead to design it, then I paste them to the bag and shoes, it was so colourful and beautiful.

The show and is my product and that's my style, I can use it to any place.

I so much love people that creative, the world love creativity and is wise we should all get up and do something meaningful to ourselves, we are in a place were nothing is useless.

The only place I will love to go is my own city, it will be a city that is filled with a lot of craft work.

As for going to places, I love attending functions with my products. The other time someone saw my gold shoe that I recycle and she ask me where I bought it from and I told her I produce it myself, she was so surprised to see me wearing beautiful stuff and is my brand.

So guys you have all seen my own way of style. I love creating new things from old stuff.

check out some of my styles

Guess what? I envy your style!
How I wish I could make something out of nothing.
When I was in school, we had to knit baby socks. When I was finished with mine, it fit me. The teacher told me that it would be best if I dropped Home Economics as a subject. (•ิ‿•ิ)

Good luck with the contest!

Ma'am thank you very much for this wonderful comment, at least you learned how to knit socks. I didn't even offer economics in school, I was a science student.
