TWEAKING SHOES

I'm finally getting my "groove back" with the art & stuff... amazing how long it takes me to get with it after a move! But my art studio/office room is all together and I've started some customizing. Of course my Living Room is still in total disarray... but since I spend so little time in there its no big deal. It can wait a month or 5... lol!

So... like a lot of you I ended up buying several "Starter" CAM packs for the extra torsos and upper limbs. Now I have duplicates/triplicates of the shoes! I also have some duplicate shoes from other dolls I bought to make OCs. So I decided I would try my hand at customizing the extra shoes...


First up... Draculaura's Shoes from "Day at the Maul" and "Killer Style". The Killer Style pair did not have the silver wedge so those are the ones I customized. I also removed the ankle strap to vary them a bit more from the original.

Next... shoes from the "Vampire / Sea Monster" CAM set. I have 3 of these!! So this is the first pair to be altered. I cut off the "ruffle" ankle straps and used an X-acto to whittle down the heels until they looked half way decent. (Kids, don't try this at home without a parent!! I don't want you cutting yourselves!!)

BEFORE:	AFTER:

So what to do with all these cut off ruffles? Well.. they actually fit quite nicely around the doll's neck... brand new accessory!!


I have a few more duplicate shoes I plan on modifying... so stay tuned! :)
