Each day something new to make you ooh and aah...

And although you couldn't see it...when Designer Linda Albrecht posted this project we were seriously jumping up and down over it! Take a look around any shoe department and what do you see...flowers...flowers everywhere! Linda shows how you can dress up your favorite shoes with yes...a flower! And best...it's not permanent so you can chance them out to match your outfit or suit the occasion!! How sweet is that?! And Designer Jan Hennings is sharing a second project for you...this one suited for teachers...or a friend too!!
