Baby Shoes

Baby shoes Small bouquet of fabric flowers from a vintage haberdashery

To the observer these vintage baby shoes, marked "Le tout petit," have many touching details that let us imagine the charming little girl who once wore them.

I’m still admiring the workmanship of the shoes of yesteryear.

How I would like today to find such pretty ones for myself !

They are put for the moment on the old radiator in my room and welcome a small bouquet of fabric flowers from a vintage haberdashery (notions) and a branch of flowers from a wedding dress.

The shoes are so adorable. I keep a pair of old baby shoes by my front door on the floor and it adds so much character when I welcome guests. They are cue little blue and white Buster Brown saddle shoes that my son wore 30 years ago. They are little works of art.

Laeriss,
