I'm getting ready to move next weekend and I'm getting nervous thinking about that I have to put all my papers, paints, textiles, ribbons... pretty much my life in a box for a few days. Before I started packing, I wanted to make a shoe.

And inspired because tomorrow my parents will be married for 25years!! Congratulations, and I love you so much~ Their Anniversary got me thinking of weddings for some reason...
but more than weddings... the little precious parts of weddings...

And I thought to myself,
"What would a flower girls shoe look like if the petals from her basket fell on her shoe?"

And I thought to myself,"What would a flower girls shoe look like if the petals from her basket fell on her shoe?"
In my mind, it looked so delicate and pure with the suns light shining through the sheer details.
So I made some paper petals that are so lightly touching this shoe. They look like they were naturally dropped there. I wish, I wish you could see this in person~ The petals are slightly shimmery - just like a real petal kissed from the sun.
Now I shall put the important things in my life in a box.... But let me tell you... when they come out I will be so excited to make a mess again! (Well, I am keeping a few things out... some things for a Tutu of course~)

This is beautiful and especially because you have such a lovely thought in mind, xv.
You are killing me here. Beautiful post, AMAZING shoe. Do you need my address? Hahahaha! I am loving this!!!!
I would happily come help you move if I get to move all the shoes! I'll even bring the tissue. Gorgeous in white as well, make that exquisite. Good luck with the move!
Stunning...so delicate & sophisticated..this shoe could be for a bride as much as for a flower girl...LOVE IT!
Congrats to your parents, that's wonderful! Good luck with the move...it's always nerve racking packing your treasures away, hoping they come out of the boxes in the same condition you put them in.
Another amazing job. Much heart always speeds up when I go to your blog and Etsy store to see if you have a new creation. Do you know I have a blog besides Style Redux called Chinoiserie Chic? I mention it not for a shameless plug, but because I think the aesthetic with Chinoiserie is similar to yours-things of fanciful, joyful, and whimsical beauty. I want you to do a piece for me; I will come up with an idea. Have you done ballet toe shoes, parasols, a strapless gown torso....These would all be lovely I think. Fabulous as always.
I know I've said this before, but I would swear to never run in mud puddles EVER AGAIN if I could wear a pair of your shoes. Absolutely ethereal!

That is so beautiful! I can't believe you make these.
Okay, NOEL, how is it that I missed this post???? This is MY FAVORITE SHOE thus far and that's incredible because that Marie Antoinette shoe is to die for! I guess because I just love white and I LOVE the line of paper bows/petals with the little rhinestones. You just keep outdoing yourself! Bravo! Bon travail!
