Personalized Bridal TOMS

Amber, on January 8, 2020 at 12:11 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 12

I knew from the beginning of planning that I didn't want to wear heels for the wedding; I don't wear them often and FH is only a couple of inches taller than me. TOMS are my favorite shoes and I found the cutest personalized TOMS on Etsy, but wasn't looking to spend that kind of money on just shoes. I bought navy TOMS on Black Friday for 40% off and bought the rest of the supplies at Walmart and Hobby Lobby. Though it took me a while, I loved doing it and it saved me about $50! Here's how they turned out Smiley laugh

    Lol I wouldn't make it down the aisle in 6 inch heels, let alone look graceful doing it Smiley xd The rose gold color is actually the inspiration pic from Etsy, mine are Navy.

    You did really good. You can setup your own Esty shop now and start selling them too. I'm not wearing heels either. I have my eye on a pair of sparkly Betsey Jonson flats.

    Ahhhhh. Navy can be the something blue. That is my dilemma with some of the cute heels I see, they are 4 inch + and I know I would be wobbling down the aisle.

    Love them! I'm debating making my own converse, but I don't know if I could keep my hand steady enough to make it look perfect. Those are seriously incredible!

    Thank you!! I was concerned about keeping my hand steady too, but it went well for the most part! I just made sure to use a really thin brush first and then go back in with a larger one.

    Those are super cute. Like you, my FH is just a few inches taller than me. Because we are getting married in the Keys on the beach, I did not want to wear heels (I love heels). I contemplated between low wedge sandals, but ultimately decided on custom embroidered chucks. I wanted a way to incorporate my heritage and found someone that could do that in a fun way.

    I absolutely love these! I’m going to be wearing knock off TOMS, mainly because I don’t buy name brand often. But they’re definitely my favorite style of shoe. I have like 8 pair already. Groove Bags has actually been a favorite dealer because of all the different designs they have. They actually have designed my wedding shoe. I don’t have the artistic ability to accomplish what I envisioned. (Also my FH’s name is Tom). The Bible verse says “So I do not run aimlessly or box like one beating the air”. Not wedding-like but he boxes and I run so it’s our verse.

    You made me change my mind about adding decorations on my wedge heels.



    What paint do I need to change the color of this non white espadrille? Please advise me.
