When I saw the title of the video I thought just as the speaker did: ‘I’m tying my shoes for dekades, I know how to.’
And just as the speaker I had to realize that I was wrong ;-))
Tag: Shoes
Painted Soles Shoes
I find these shoes absolutely amazing, too!

Ballet Flats
Simply sew yourself your shoes for the next summer ;-))
It doesn’t seem to be too hard, but that never stopped me from mucking things up ;-))

Cardboard Shoe Storage
The cardboard shoe storage is a nice idea if you want to show your shoes ;-)

Shoe Purse
Ever made a purse from an old shoe? ;-)
But that’s not for people with smelly feet ;-))

Beaded Shoes
I’d never have had the idea myself: beading shoes!
Up until now I mostly ‘jumped’ at buttons and pins and the bead embroidered Paisleys are still on my list, but shoes…
If you don’t like the pattern, check out again the cross stitch patterns treasures ;-)
I’m thrilled, it’s possible that I really will make them once ;-)
You can possibly even embroider your self-made shoes.
On the other hand it may be easier to spraypaint the shoes.
And if you are a sneaker type you may prefer to customize your sneakers ;-)
Besides fall has begun, possibly you better add crochet embellishments to your shoes?! ;-)

Sneaker Customizing
Somehow I really love painted shoes and so I was thrilled about the tutorial for self customized sneakers.
As much fun as spraypainted shoes ;-)
I think that I won’t do this because first I have too much shoes already and second they somehow don’t match my style, but who knows? ;-)

Self-made Shoes
Some people are fantastic!
At craftster somebody published a tutorial on how to make yourself cheap shoes.
I don’t know whether I will make some, but I wanted to present it anyhow!

Spraypainting Accessories
A great idea again: customize accessories to your clothes with spray paints.
This way you can make i.e. comfortable shoes for dancing matching your ball dress ;-)
Or follow the ideas of Buy Nothing Day and revamp a by now shabby handbag to match your newest coat.
You also could have coloured one of your boots in red and fill it with some sweets ;-))

Knitted Slippers
Not long ago my mother mentioned that she would like to have some slippers for Christmas because she has always cold feet.
When I read a very similar sentence at craftster in a thread, I knew immediately: that will be my Christmas gift.
The instruction is fine, on the photo you see my sketch for the sizes.
But I still have to buy the appropriate yarn.
P.S.: The specific point at the instruction is, that this is no ‘normal’ sock knitting, but it is about a sewn sock.
