Good idea, though.<br />Kate--thanks!<br />Lisa--yes, I am glad I could do that with these shoes, because they were not too precious.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-crafty#post-2395129 Sat, 06 Sep 2025 23:42:15 +0000 Lisa 2395129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So clever! The markings on the shoes really help them pop against your legs. The hat is so fun with the flower addition. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-crafty#post-2395116 Sat, 06 Sep 2025 20:46:15 +0000 Kate 2395116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clever hack with the shoes, Carol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-crafty#post-2395113 Sat, 06 Sep 2025 19:44:16 +0000 JAileen 2395113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two good ideas! &nbsp;I really love the polka dots - I might copy you. &nbsp;I&nbsp;used a Sharpie on the zipper and pull of a leather jacket, to tone down the bright gold shininess. &nbsp;It’s not permanent, but pretty good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-crafty#post-2395107 Sat, 06 Sep 2025 16:42:42 +0000 Carol 2395107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Lise!

So I found an old black rose pin and held it up--now it is a Blossom hat!</p> <p>The shoes were much better looking online. On my legs, they matched so perfectly to my skin, and not in an elegant way. I added some contrast and pattern with a sharpie.&nbsp; </p>
