For everyone searching for blinged-out ballet flats....

I found this Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeholdenBridal?section_id=8122456 

I am planning to make this weekend my last weekend of searching for the perfect purple ballet flats...if I can't find them, I am going to have this designer make some custom blingy lilac ones for me!

I have been messaging with her, and she is super sweet and responds very quickly. Every bride that has ordered from her has left positive feedback, so hopefully it will be a good experience!

Thanks for sharing that link!  I'm making my own and my FG's and have been saving pics for months of ones I like for inspiration, but I hadn't seen any of hers so now I have more ideas for when all my supplies get here

Thanks guys!! I probably will end up going with them...there is no way I am going to find any lavender flats with the perfect silver and ivory crystals on them that I have envisioned in my head at any store at the mall!

The other ones I have considered are significantly more expensive than these, so I was thrilled to find them! She hand dyes them and uses swarovski crystals so it is totally worth it to me - especially since I am the least crafty person in the history of the planet and don't even know how to operate a glue gun.

Oh they definitely look worth the money to me - and you're right - you probably won't find anything like that in the store.  I just had "sticker shock" :p but they look like great shoes.
