I'm going to a wedding this Saturday, and despite spending months looking all over the city, I just didn't find shoes to go with my outfit. And if I found some nice shoes that fit me, they didn't fit my budget.
So, instead I took a pair of heels I already have and love (you can see them before the decorating here: [link]) and got inspired by the necklace (here is a poopy picture of it taken on the dirty work room floor: [link]) I'm going to wear.
I then proceeded to get 2 plastic deers, some stick-on rhinestones, 2 buttons, "This will stick anything to anything else"-glue, some velvet ribbon and organza ribbon.
Then I made rosettes and bows out of the ribbons, sewed a button on each, stuck some rhinestones to the deer's rumps and then glued the deer to the buttons.
The end result is lovely and kitcshy and only cost me a fraction of what buying new shoes would have cost me.
The decorations are removable as they're just tied on to the T bar of the shoes.
This just proves that it only takes imagination and a bit of time to make something beautiful and different! I don't think I could ever come up with something like that, but the deers and all the arrangements you've made go really well with the shoes, and it looks really good!
I agree, trust your ideas and just go for it, even if you're not sure of the outcome! You'll never know which ideas will work and which are best to be left just as ideas if you don't give it a try first.
Guess I should trust my ideas more often...
