There are two scenes that mirror each other on each boot. One side is of a witch holding a spider in front of a cat.
The other is a graveyard scene with an owl in a tree and a cat sitting on a tombstone.
For this set I added brass eyelets to the lace holes, which I don't normally do. It's difficult to get them in those tight spots and tough on my hands. (You probably won't see these eyelets on many of my pieces.) I then tea stained some tiny lace for the lacing trying to match the antique white of the moons. The ends of the laces were wrapped in masking tape and dipped in a metallic gold fabric paint to make them look like metal tips. I couldn't find a gold to match the eyelets, so I mixed black with the bright gold. It ended up a pleasantly close match.
Jamie is planning to paint some more witch BOO'ts in the future. We've been talking of doing more collaborative work together. So, keep an eye on her Etsy shop, Creepy Creations. You may see a large boot, another small pair, or even an adorable ornament size we're working on. Can't wait to see how they turn out.
I also hope to have a pair of small Witch BOO'ts and a shoe available in my own shop this week. Just need to do some finishing touches. Wish me luck! I'll post here on my blog when I do.
