Bristol Independents Day

I'm sat having a lovely meeting about Bristol Independents Day, which is coming up on 4th July....(see what they did there?), at the lovely The Birdcage in Bristol. Sadly my phone is dead so I can't take you pictures to share, but it's a joy.

Atomic Star Mules

Sadly I can't find the original photo's of these, but I think I love them. 

A few months back I gave Clumsy Kate a pair of pretty crappy looking wooden mules, she took them apart and got to it with her wood tattooing. I'd given her a sample of the fabric I intended to recover them with, and so the design was to match the fabric.

 

When they returned they looked like this......And then it was Christmas, and I moved house, and have been working on organising the shop so they stayed like this for a while. 

 

Until this weekend, spurred on by the warmer and sunnier weather, I wanted to make sure I got them done along with clearing out some other bits which have been sat about. So I went to the DIY shop to get furniture tacks for the sides, and set to work. 

I was planning a very simple twisted style like this. Based on a pair of mules I already have, so all I needed was a length of fabric and some chalk. If this post is popular I may post how I recovered these on another pair because it was so quick and easy I'm plotting and planning to do loads more!    

Now, here are the finished articles, I really want to wear them to the beach tomorrow, but I think pumps are a more practical idea, however I have an exciting upcoming event in mind I can wear them out for. They aren't perfect, don't really match properly but I LOVE them and can't wait to wear them out.
