Many Classes are Available to Learn the Art of Shoemaking

Hi Eileen,

I want to make my sisters wedding shoes and was wondering if you can help me. I saw your blog and wanted to know if you would help me come up with a process on how to make the prefect pair for her big day!

This has always been a dream of mine to make high heel shoes and wanted to see if you could help.

Thank you,

Kristina

You didn't mention how much time you have before the "Big Day" or if you have any experience in working with leather, but high heel shoemaking is not something that can be learned in a day!

The Artful Crafter has an Index of Articles on Shoe Making including courses and supply sources. Here's an article specific to High Heel Shoe Making.

The other thing you might try is looking for shoe making adult education courses at local schools and community centers.

Good luck. What a lovely thing this would be to do for your sister!
