Hi,

I've got a bit of a problem and i'm hoping one or more of you lovely crafty ladies can help me out!

I have a gorgeous pair of Pied a Terre shoes that are perfect for the wedding day, but they have been well loved and are a dark cream shade, not the lovely white of my dress! I'd like to recover the shoes in the same material as my dress (which i have) but don't have a clue where to start.

I've looked at few websites that offer this service but that ends up costing more than the shoes did!

Any help appreciated PLEASE!

what about dye??
Could you just get them redyed??

Not sure if they dye - they are raw silk and it may not work. Good idea though will ring a couple of dye companies and see what they say.
