Well so far I have a pair of bling satin pumps and a pair of blinged heels but I have fell in love with these shoes that bella tried on for her wedding day in twilight,

Only problem is there something like £1300
Im thinking of having a go at these myself but just wondering if any of you ladies have seen something similar at a fraction of the cost xxx

CommentAuthor*Claire*
blimey, you ladies are great, like the A Team for all things wedding! I need a pair of heels that have the platform front so they are not as high to walk in but not 4" and above. Cant find them anywhere, spent hours looking. All the lower heels dont have that wow appeal :(
And like Velcro says, bet you could knock them up Brilly, you are craft queen! x
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
get a pair of satin heels and get someone to put that detailing on for you, there will be someone out there who is skilled with beads to do it for you

*claire* if ur ok not having platform maybe look for ones with bit of sparkle and dazzle abit, I wanted the wow factor but coz I have a problem with my knee I'm not allowed to wear high heels. But found low ones bland for me. So found some mid heels that have some sparkle and I love them x

Good idea, I have been looking for sparkly ones but cant find any. I have the same problem as you Emma-Louise, have bad knees and am tall as well so dont like to tower over people! Could I ask where you got yours from? x
CommentAuthorMrsC2bee
I got my of 3bay as lady was selling them brand new in box an got them for half the price. Mine are by pink paradox their called strawberry I think. There's a pick in my album of them x
CommentAuthorbrilly
Thank you ladies your amazing, ive ordered some appliques already last night to give them a go and instead of sewing the crystals on im gonna use my trust hotfix tool :) xx
Emma & Claire im the same I have really bad knees sometimes resulting in using a cane and im tall too thats why I wanted to recreate these but with a smaller heel :) xx
Velcro Im gonna give them a try hun once appliques get here gonna do a trial run on foam shapes :) x

Thank you Georgi they are really comfortable too hun x
Rachael I cut the main shape out of a sheet of foam to use as my base then for the flower I got 3 flower appliques for 99p cut 1 in half and stitched it to a full one then I stitched it to the base. I used 3mm hotfix crystals on the flowers 2mm and 4mm ones on the rest sprayed it with acrylic spray to seal it all then used a glue gun to stick it to the shoe (I was impatient and ran out of 3mm thats why its on the shoe with out being completed lol) xx
GF I love them hun keep walking round the living room in them and looking at the reflection in the fire lol I cant wait to finish them off :) xx

Samantha I already have one hun doing all this lol xx
Thank you Lana I dont want to take them off :) xx
Thank you Katherine Im chuffed to bits with them I have about 4 sets of wedding shoes I was blinging up as I couldnt decide on what I wanted but these are definately the ones:) xx
Devil I was thinking about it hun as I saw some copy ones but they were with beads not crystals and they were still wanting £80-£120 for them which is still alot to pay x
Brideintraining the best advice I can give hun is dont be afraid to give something a go yourself if you like something out of your price range then price the individual bits up and have a go alot of people are scared as they dont think they can do D.I.Y but its amazing what you can achieve when you put your mind to it hun :) I love the films too were having Christina Perri's Thousand Years part 2 played for me walking down the aisle :) xx
Thank you Stacy I think the originals are a little too high to be honest I'd break my neck in them where as I can walk comfortably in the ones ive made so dont have to worry about snapped necks or ankles lol xxx
