    I love the Louboutin "Petal" shoes and bag, so I used Maegan's amazing DIY tutorial to make my own...and saved a couple hundred bucks in the process.  Smile

    Here's the link to the tutorial:

    So I started with this $10 clutch I found on clearance at Target....

    I love all the petals and it was so easy!!  Sorry for the poor quality pics...just took them with my phone.

    Now planning on doing petals for the shoes.  What color do you think I should?  I was originally planning on blush pink but I actually kind of like how the gray turned out.  What do you think??

    nicee job! blush pink always looks great on the skin! Gray is really in too though.  I vote for the blush pink.

    Thanks for your patience with my tech incompetence :)  Glad that you guys like them.  I actually just ordered some silver-ish shoes because I just wanted something "neutral" that would blend in beneath the petals.  I was going to go with light gold but my jewelry is all silver.  I had trouble finding a really light pink...don't want to go too cotton candy!   I guess I'll just wait until my shoes get here and see what looks best with them.

    The bag didn't take long at all...probably about 1.5 hours while watching TV but you could do it quicker.  Haven't made the shoes yet!
