I put glitter on mah shoes: DIY Glitter Shoes!

I got tired of my black sneakers. . . I think that they're good to have in your wardrobe, but there comes a time when you feel like glittering something and sibbies are NOT an option. . .

The Shoe

I also decided to use a strong marker and paint the inside bright green on an impulse :)



Pink glitter. Bam. Insta-glitz! I mixed the glitter with flexible fabric glue and painted it on. They don't shed and they glitter like the moon :) I wanted to make them red, but my sister just got red sneakers for her birthday, so I chose pink. Will definitely do this in the future with peep-toe pumps!

Bookbinding

I have been having a blast bookbinding! I found some easy tutorials on YouTube, and just went to town :)Blue birdies, prayers and lyrics to a few of my favorite songs :)


Dreams and boats, swirls and clouds! I made this one thicker and made the word "Aspire" on a label maker if my fickle heart should so desire to have a different inspirational word featured. :)



Pink, black and white, bows, polka dots and my favorite word!

A note of thanks goes to Daddy for making the boys new bed units and to Mama for painting them. You knew I needed a lovely place to take pictures, didn't you? :P

How's it going?

Well it's been a busy week with a slow but heavy beginning to the school year. I'm almost done with Algebra 1 as I start Algebra 2. Geometry hasn't come in the mail yet, but that's good.

SO, on the craft front, I started to crochet a shawl with periwinkle yarn, I'm starting Christmas presents (all knit, of course), I'm planning some wool/angora fingerless gloves and I'm considering starting my winter 1850's dress. And I have to make a skating dress before lessons start up again.

The above is pretty self evident that I may have something else to be doing.

Ta-ta,
