Today I have been on the scrounge for old shoes. They are to be transformed into fabulous shoes at my cinderella shoe swap. The event is to take place in two weeks at the Chesterfield Arts Market. I need as many pairs of shoes and shoe boxes as I can get so I have been hassling charity shops for oddments and shoe boxes from shops. Johnathon James in Alfreton were very helpful and have promised me more shoe boxes next week- hurrah! I also have a few leads on shoes and plan to get myself a wanted add on freecycle next. I have also asked all my mates for some donations and with any luck in two weeks time there will be loads to go round.
I have been out on the town looking for all kind of decorative stuff that will turn the old worn out soles into gleaming new slippers. I have a range of glittery glue and sequins and stuff and have just spent the last hour making an old boot look like new. I am really pleased with the result-

I hope that lots of people will come and have a go at making their own creations on the 29th of October. There will be pumpkins and bunting and lots of other funky stuff to try.
