Elf Shoes, possibly the cutest craft ever?

I came across this pattern for these adorable elf shoes whilst browsing round Pinterest.  They looked simple enough to make, even for a novice crafter like me!

The pattern is by Jenny b Harris of AllsortsMakery.com. Here is the link: http://allsorts.typepad.com/allsorts/2007/11/ears-to-your-el.html

Take a look round my Elf Shoe Gallery!

Elf shoes

I've made a few pairs now, and they have been very popular with my little girls. My elder girl leaves her lost baby teeth in hers for the tooth fairy to find - beats scrabbling about under her pillow to try to find a teeny tiny tooth!

Here are a couple of examples of Tooth Fairy shoes!

They also make a great birthday gift, filled with sweet treats, nail polish, lip balm - anything that will fit! Complete it with a note from the 'Birthday Fairy'!

The great thing about the elf shoes is you can really go to town with the decoration - beads, buttons, bows, tassels, charms, crystals, embroidery - release your inner elf!
