Custom TOMS, once again!

So not to long ago now, I came across this wonder piece of webpage:
http://thehandmadehomemaker.blogspot.com/2011/07/diy-fabric-covered-toms-tutorial.html

I had a pair of TOMS for probably over two years now that have been sitting in my closet for well over a year because of some major holeage in the toes. But didn't have the heart to throw them out. And good thing too! This DIY totally saved a pair of shoes from the trash!

So here they are, my NEW-ish Custom TOMS

Wedding card

Originally I saw this as a wedding invitation and instead turned it into a card for the Bride and Groom.

Here is the original:

And here's mine! Sorry I didn't get the cover, I didn't even think about it. But if you have to know, it only says "congrats." Haha

Paint Chip Art

So maybe a couple weeks ago I was using StumbleUpon, as I usually do for great arts and crafts ideas, and came upon this page:
http://twogirlsbeingcrafty.blogspot.com/2011/04/intersecting-circles-wall-art-tutorial.html

I decided to do it with my own twist. I definitely didn't follow their directions haha. I found that slab of wood in my stepdad's wood shop and then got the template for the design using my mom's quilting template design on the computer, and while very frustrated, attempted to center it with nothing being the same size all around. But I did an alright job. I definitely love the colors and the wood stained background :D

Paper Flowers

So a few months ago I decided I wanted to decorate my new bedroom with a Gryffindor theme to show my undying love for Harry Potter. Which recently I've decided to go in a different direction. Anyways, I found a tutorial through Stumble Upon to make paper flowers. So here are my Gryffindor Common Room themed paper flowers!

And here is the link if you want to try them yourself!

First Custom TOMS

Wow, so this is my first blog post EVER! And I have no idea who'll read it haha. But anyways, since I decided to dedicate this blog mostly to arts and crafts I figure I'd start out with something that I designed myself.

These are TOMS that I designed for a girl I went to church with.

Hope you like them! :)
