I’m fascinated by beautiful shoes!
What’s really strange is that I don’t own very many pairs of shoes and definitely nothing like the confections made in the Marie Antoinette movie. To me a beautiful shoe is like artwork.
So armed with my imagination… I created these two shoes that I hope Marie would have been proud to wear, hopefully the first two shoes of many from my new line called Confections de Marie.
Please peruse the pictures below. I hope you enjoy.
Also, a shoe I will design in the color of your choice (pink, white or green) will be included in the giveaway starting tomorrow celebrating my 50th blog post. Please stop by tomorrow to see the goodies and leave a comment to be entered in the giveaway. Thank you all for being so supportive and wonderful!
If you are interested in the lovely vintage wallpapers used on these shoes... they were purchased from the lovely Heather at Pretty Petals Boutique. Thank you Heather!

These shoes are so lovely! The colurs are perfect and the design spectacular. They look almost more like candy than like shoes...how delightful!

Hi Elaine! Thank you so much for visiting me and your sweet comment.
Nancy
Your little creations are pure artwork! They are amazing and dainty. Great work!

They are incredible! Maybe you should design wearable shoes too!
Your creations are simply amazing! Wow, wow, wow! I think Marie would have been extremely proud!
Have you ever thought about going into shoe design, I know I would buy a pair!
These are so so sweet Nancy!
Oh, if I could only get my square toes into shoes like that!
I'm sure Marie could too...lovely idea and so feminine and FRENCH!
Having my own shoe fascination (since childhood), I soooo understand. And the Marie Antoinette movie is a real treasure. I am sure she would adore your shoes! She'd be crazy not to!
