Fixing elastic band on shoes

Recommended Posts

ragnamuffin

Hi, does anyone know how to fix this elastic (?) band on my doll’s shoe? I was putting it on her and the band snapped. I was able to collect all the pearls and could probably put them back on and glue the ends together, but I’m not sure that’s a good long-term solution. Should I try re-threading them? Is there somewhere I can take them to get repaired?

If you think you're up to it, I would fix it myself and get some elastic string.

And get a curved needle

Thank you for the link! I wasn’t sure what kind of thread that was.

I got a quote from a nearby repair shop and they wanted $45 for one shoe!!! That’s even more than I paid for them!

Guess I’ve gotta learn to sew if I don’t want to keep paying out the wazoo for this stuff…
