Hole punch your cardboard shapes in a triangle, but where the top one is is where your toe will be so leave room!

Tie

Using your string, tie the string together using the holes you punched in. Make sure the strings are tight enough to keep the shoe of your foot, but loose enough so you can get them on.

Finished!
