Adorable embellished shoes and more bloggity goodness

Two things today. I've started a new blog. I'll be keeping this one (and posting more, I promise) but I wanted somewhere to post more *ahem* mature projects. I know that some of my online buddies are little-uns, and some aren't as fond of bawdiness as I am, so I wanted somewhere separate to post those sorts of things. There will be overlap between the two blogs (like these shoes for example) but I'll keep it fairly PG here. 

BUT if you're a gal with moxy and a glue gun, and you're up for some frisky crafting with sass head over to La Bona Dea ~ The Good Goddess



Now on to the shoes!

We went shopping a few weeks ago and saw sooo many beautiful shoes. I fell in love with a ton of Betsey Johnson's that were utterly adorable but my wallet scoffed at me. I thought 'balls to that! I'll make my own."


I picked up this pair of scuffed heels for a few bucks and polished them up.


Already an improvement but I wanted to turn them into something girly and impractical.



I can't jump in puddles with these... but how stinking cute are they?!?!


I used THESE anenome flowers from Petaloo in light pink. The leaves I pulled off of some dollar store silk flowers and then just added a tiny pink bow. I stuck everything on with just a bit of hot glue.


They might not be Betsey Johnson's but I LOVE them and think they are totally adorable. They hardly took any time or money at all so if/when they do fall to bits I'm not worried and I can change them up again.

Next time, more glitter.
