Wearables The BJD shoe project

Jan 12, 2024

    1. I'm back with another project thread. I recently opened my bjd shoe box to find all my bought shoes have peeled and fallen apart. Since gothic pieces seem to be non existent these days, I've taken it upon myself to make them.

      I also have an Angura Kei boy so there will be some traditional Japanese pieces here and there. Which brings me to my first completed set. A pair of casual Geta.

      The fabric straps are wired and there is an invisible elastic so that they can be posed and worn with normal feet.

    2. Shoes are hard! The geta look great, definitely watching this thread to see how it goes with the rest!

    3. What are the soles/bases of your geta made of? They look great!
       
    4. They look awesome! What did you do about the toe separator? Did you leave it out and used the wire instead for holding the form? Great idea
       
    5. The geta are beautiful! I made some geta for my dolls but they’re way simpler and utilitarian. I’d love to learn how to make pretty ones like you did!
       
    6. They are resin!

      I have a an invisible string/elastic for extra sturdiness but I'm thinking of swapping it out for magnets for the next pair to see how that holds up.
