Aye, how very simple! It's a surprise I haven't thought of this before...
I will try this technique on my old pair of shoes... for they are quite lackluster. :)
Much thanks for the informative video.

You did a great job! Will save some of us tons of money. Thanx!

I found it refreshing to actually want to turn the sound down. On other videos I have to place my speakers right up on both ears. Great vid by-the-way.

Get a roll or large pieces of clear or frosted Mylar from an art supply or plastics wholesaler. Just Google it.

Or you can do it the easy way by visiting your local sign shop. Any place that has a tangential plotter will be able to computer cut virtually any design you can think of. The material she is using is a very thin lexan. .032 probably. This can be purchased at a sign supply distributor or the sign shops themselves. They come in 24" x 32" sheets or there abouts. Not every sign shop will do this sorta thing.

you can get the plastic sheets from office depot or kmart or walmart.

i'm planning to decorate my room with vines or hyacinths for borders...
is there a way you could use a roller instead of sheets?
