Yes, I'm still here! I've been side-tracked for a week or so but now it's time to finish those cute purple kidskin shoes!  The other day I received a pair of Aurora Borealis shoe clips which have a blue sparkle to them. Just beautiful.  I'm putting them on the pair of silver mules that were displayed at the Guilford Welcome Center last month.  As an experiment, I recreated those mules in a different size (le pralin)- I even found another matching pair of French rhinestone shoe clips for them. ugh....it was no fun at all making a pair of shoes knowing what they would look like!  It's always a surprise when I take the lasts out. That's when I decided each pair needs to be original!
