There is something that I really like about little shoes, and I think it is because of the story of the Elves and the Shoemaker. It is the idea of a lovely new piece of leather (in my case felt) being left out at night, and in the morning there being a brand new pair of shoes. Although in this version I am the Shoemaker, and the shoes are elf-sized.
These didn't do very well at any of my fairs, so will probably end up on my own Christmas tree. But the good thing is that means I also get the chocolates inside!
Your Pixie shoes look great.
ReplyDeleteThey are so much fun to make. All the best

I think they are adorable. How surprising they were not just snapped up...all the more chocolate for you then! :o)
ReplyDeleteEvery cloud has a silver lining! These are really cute and I cannot understand why they didn't sell. Enjoy them on your tree :)
ReplyDeleteCute!
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely and I am really surprised they didn't do well at the craft fair. Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteIt's a shame they didn't do well at the fair (so unpredictable sometimes)but you have your silver lining...enjoy x
ReplyDeleteoh wow, how dinky and cute! Such a shame they didnt sell, but you get to enjoy the fruits of your labour! x
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous! Shame you will have to eat the chocolates ; -)
ReplyDeleteI'm suprised they didn't fly off your stall they are so cute. Oh well at least you get to keep the chocolate!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they didn't sell well, I think they are so cute. And there's chocolate inside, what more can a girl ask for.

You can never predict how craft fairs will go, it's a constant surprise. I love the story of the elves and the shoemaker, I'm trying to imagine you sewing into the night with only candlelight to see by..... ok that's going a bit far but you know what I mean :)

I think the little shoes are so pretty. Especially hung on the tree, or tucked away in nooks and crannies to be found as a little surprise. Especially with the chocolates!

They look so cute. Shame they were not selling well. At the least the public's loss is your chocolate gain :-)
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness these are the cutest things!! There really is no accounting for the taste of the general public at times, i don't think i'd have been able to resist them if i'd passed your stall! x
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! You may still go to a fair and be sold out, I never seem to predict for fairs - and they really are lovely. Have a great week, Jo x
ReplyDeleteThose are the sweetest things I've seen in a long time. <3
ReplyDeleteThose are so adorable!
ReplyDeleteOh, those are so precious! We have been reading the Elves and the Shoemaker repeatedly this month - the children really love the story.
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me, these are adorable! I think they'd make any tree super special.
ReplyDeleteThese are so cutely adorable. What a sweet Christmas ornament!! I sincerely believe that those hardworking elves need more celebration each year! x
ReplyDeleteJust too darn cute.....I think an adult size pair for Winter might be just the thing, they looks so cosy.
