Holy wow, those are beautiful! Will you be my aunt?
My special friend Alysia (who just passed
) always had the coolest shoes. She was her full adult height, but she had child-sized feet, so she could find shoes with sequins and sparkles and glitter all the time. The kind the rest of us are supposed to be "too grown up" for. Everywhere we went, people would comment on her shoes! Dorothy would have been envious of Alysia's shoes.
When she would go in for surgery, I would tell her that I was going to wear her shoes while she was in the OR. It was a joke, because my feet are probably twice as long as hers, and she'd always laugh at me. But, I totally would have if I could have!
I had no idea you can sew beads to shoes. I'm going to have to look into that for myself! Is it hard to push the needle through the shoe canvas? I wonder if you could glue them if you had shoes you couldn't sew into?
This might get me out of my Birkenstocks. They're so comfortable I wear them every day. I'm just hoping someone will tell me they're not nice enough for church, so I can say, "Hey man, Jesus wore them!" Ooooh, maybe I can just bead up the Birks?
