About this item
These canvas shoes have been individually decorated with napkin decoupage, carefully layering a collage of images from complementary paper napkins. I have purposefully decorated the two shoes differently for more impact but made them so that they match or reflect each other when seen and worn together. Different views of an old world map are used on each shoe front, with background classical images of sea and country scenes on other parts. The shoes are unusual and unique and, whilst I follow a design/pattern, no two pairs I produce will be the exactly the same. The medium and varnish used give the shoes an almost plastic-feel finish (which softens nicely with wear) and which make the shoes relatively shower proof. However, I would suggest that my shoes are treated like fashion shoes and not trainers/heavy duty plimsolls (especially avoiding playing ball games, deep puddles and immersing in water!) and are cleaned gently with only a damp cloth. These are Slazenger plimsolls, in case you might wish to try on a pair in a Sports Shop to check how the sizing comes up.

I think it is great to have shoes that no-one else is wearing and so decorating shoes yourself can be the answer! Although it is very time-consuming and painstaking, I really do enjoy making these mini works of art which I feel are rather unusual and special and will be unique to the person wearing them. I have sold pairs to people living in the USA, Germany, Italy, Japan and New Zealand and it is super to get pictures of them ‘in action’ on my Facebook page, 'Your Lovely Home', www.facebook.com/YourLovelyHomeStephanieSinclair - so do put up any fun pictures of your pair if you would like to! I also decorate canvas shoes to order, in this and a choice of seven other styles, between March and October annually. If you may be interested, please do look out for my Made To Order listings during this time.

Such a great idea to make a bar of soap special. I won't be giving it to my daughter until my grandaughter arrives September. I know she will love it.
