RE: Progress on my first proper handmade shoes!

in NeedleWorkMonday2 months ago

I’ve got a pair of leather slippers and they are my favorite! Granted they have a little more of a layer on them then yours does it looks like but once you wear them around the house a decent bit the leather gets a bit of a coating to it you could say, and makes it pretty good and durable. Just gotta be careful with them for a few weeks until that happens. I take a walk out to the car if it’s dry out with them in which isn’t the best because we keep a clean house but it’s ok once in a while!

Yey, @cmplxty !! The walk up Via Roma to the shop is pretty easy going, even for inside shoes, and no I'll keep them away from rain and water and dog poo, for sure 😆 Thanks for reminding me to be careful for the first while with them: wear them in and habituate them to the house, at least! Anyhoo, the prototype is bound to be lesser than the next set I make... Looking forward to the mastery! Happy day to you, friend 🤗
