Not quite finished yet, but this is the first time I’ve gotten to try them on! Platform sneakers~~

Charlotte Free was selling a pair of platform sneakers in my size but I couldn’t afford them.. but it was just the push I needed to start making my own pair. :p I’ve been meaning to do this for at least a year now. And after seeing Yume Ninja’s awesome pair I wanted to make them even more.

I still have to sand and tape them, but almost there! Originally I was going to use black duct tape but now after seeing how pretty the shoes are being colorful, I might go with hot pink zebra-striped duct tape instead..

Annie Spandex has a great tutorial on platfor shoes in case anyone is interested in making their own pair. :]

Oh, and this is the before shot. :D I think I got these shoes for $10 at TJ Max years ago while shopping with Melissa and Julie..

edit: The finished pair can be seen here :D
