Shoe fetish for Me. Shoe fetish for Baby

I would love to have a whole room dedicated to just shoes one day. Why would I want any different for my little girl. In 7 weeks our son, Beckett will have a little sister. Shoes are my fetish and mixed with a hormonal pregnant lady who is nesting. I had to make sure she had the perfect shoe to go with her blessing outfit. I couldn't find anything that wasn't an exorbitant amount of money until I went to etsy. The vendor, Precious Patterns on etsy is where I found the cutest shoe pattern. The pattern costs $3.99 and with supplies was a total of $11.00 all together. The pattern goes up to 14 months. I am planning on making a ton more different shoes based on the same pattern. It took me about an hour and a half from beginning to finish. I might not get my room of shoes for myself but our little girl just might get a closet full of shoes because her mother could not contain herself.

Before & After . . . Nicola's dresser

It all began with a quest for organization. Not finding what I wanted at a big box store I turned to Craigslist and found this beauty. She had great lines, some battle scars, and a lot of potential. So in the trunk of my Camry she went. Yes, I said my trunk. At least half of it was in my trunk. The other half was a traffic hazard.



After removing molding, sanding, sanding, more sanding and a trip to urgent care for reaction to sanding, a final paint choice, and hardware here is the final result. Needs some touch up (after a recent move) & some sealer, but I still love her.
