Members Eve Posted December 24, 2014 Members Report Posted December 24, 2014 Hi! I'm so excited, finally I created my second pair of shoes, it took me many years to gather experience, material and tools to made them, without made a pair myself, I didn't know each part is a hard work (specially without a teacher and totally lack of experience and tools), my first pair of shoes I recycle some old shoes part (the mid-sole with shank and the heel), so it was so much easier, however this second pair was totally made from scratch, like the heel for example I used many layers of leather stack it into the heels, and everything was done by my hand. I suppose the hardest part for a person who interest to learn how to make shoes was the material, unlike bag, it requires much less specialized parts such as Last, Shank, Heel, without them, it is almost impossible or very difficult to create a proper pair of ladies high heel shoes. This pair was done without the Last, a copy from my other pair of same style sandals I brought from the shop, you can tell it is done by a newbies, but it is after all my second pair of shoes =) Regards and Marry Christmas everyone!!!!
