I recently learned how to make baby shoes… this is crazy cool to me since I am a slight bit obsessive about my girls and having just the right shoes!
My little Olivia has tiny feet yet, and nothing will fit. Even the little 0-3 size at the store is over an inch too big! Sooo… I decided, when you can’t find something you “NEED;” why not make it?!! (this is a very typical solution to many of my problems…)
The first pair was really really tiny (<2” sole), and only barely slipped on her feet. Thankfully Miss Melanie (born on Halloween) has just hit the 4 lb. mark and they were gifted on to her. The second pair was just right, and I am so very happy with them!
I originally found a tutorial online here, and it was very easy to follow. I have since adjusted a few things to make it different than the original and found them easier to make.
Try it yourself – you may just be surprised to find out you can make shoes too!

Do you think you could make me a pair of boy shoes?? I would love some for Gavin. Let me know!!
I'd love to Rochelle! I have a pair here in a brown/beige color, but can make them in any fabric... what are you looking for?
Brown/Beige would probably be good. Something that matches a bunch.
