How to make elf shoes.

Not really too hard to make.

I used an old pair of sandals so the bottom

sole would be waterproof and firm.

Then I cut out the shoe shape from green

vinyl fabric matching the width of the

shoe with the sandal.

I put the right sides of the vinyl together and stitched all 

around leaving the bottom open.

Then I turned the vinyl right side out.

I folded over the bottom of the vinyl about 1/4" and then

used a heavy carpet thread and a strong sewing

needle to hand stitch it to the shoe.

Then I hot glued upholstery gimp trim around

and on top of the stitching.

Then I stuffed the curvy toe of the shoe so 

it would stay upright.

I sewed a bell to each tip and hot glued fluffy fur

around the top.

  

Voila! Sturdy waterproof and durable

elf shoes that were comfortable to wear.

PEACE. LOVE. LIFE. (party decorations)

Peace.
Love.
And the Important Things in Life.

This is just a wonderful theme. It's so versatile and can

be so personalized to fit the party person.

Here's some ideas from this year.

Coincidentally one was for "HALLE" and
one was for "HALEY".

FOR HALLE:

Here's the logo created by Laura at Party Perfect for 

HALLE in grunge-style lettering.

We made the centerpieces.

Here's the table centerpiece for 
Peace, Love, Laugh.

Peace, Love, Trust.

Peace, Love, Harmony.

You get the idea?
Peace, Love, Adventure.

Each placecard matched a 
centerpiece design.

Here's a bunch of the designs.
