Marie Shoe Soiree

Today is the Marie Antoinette Shoe Soiree! Hosted by Angela Harris of yourangil.blogspot.com.

The theme of this Soiree was to take on old shoe and remake it into something that Marie herself would have liked to wear!

Mom and I found a cute little pair of heels at Goodwill and redesigned each one into shoes that I hope Marie would have approved of!

Here is my shoe.

I took a black shoe and painted it pink with silver edges.


I bought a pair of vintage earrings to add a bit of sparkle to open toe shoe.

I added pearl stickers,silver glitter and a crown to the heel.

Here's Mom's beautiful shoe.

She painted it a lovely shade of blue and added blue feathers.

She used the other vintage rhinestone earring and added a feather along the front.

We both had a fun time making these! I think I would enjoy altering shoes again sometime.

I thought that I would show you my Marie Antoinette layout too, since it matched the theme of this post.

Mom and I recently found the new Somerset magazine called Marie. It features amazing artwork!





It's a fun read and is still available in stores.



I couldn't pass up this opportunity to show you another Barbie! This is a beautiful Marie Antoinette Barbie. I hope someday that I will find one for my collection that I could afford. She is a very grand doll and was made in a limited quantity.

I hope you have enjoyed visiting today! For a list of the other participants visit yourangil.blogspot.com

Wishing you a happy day, Lindsey and Twyla
