Beautiful hand-sewn ruby slipper bows

One pair of these beautiful ruby slipper bows will be used on our next pair of ruby slippers. There's nothing cheap about any of them, they are high quality and hand-sewn like the originals.

Similar bows have been used on other pairs of ruby slippers that have been sold. When they are gone, we make new bows as replacements to keep a few available in our stock and pick the set of bows that we think looks nice on the ruby slippers once the sequining process is finished.

More bows means more choices. We always craft our ruby slippers with precision and attention to detail for everyone to enjoy.

#7 Judy Garland is written in both shoes

A label reading "Innes Shoe Co. Los Angeles, Hollywood, Pasadena" has been attached to the right shoe, and "#7 Judy Garland" is written on the sides of both shoes with an old school fountain pen.

It's now sewing time as we reproduce "the most beautiful shoes worn by the most beautiful actress in movie history".

The sewing on this side of the shoe is almost done. I just need to sew the lip or the top part, then there's the other side of the shoe that needs a lot of attention, and not to mention the second shoe.

Many hours of hard work just to get this far. It's never easy making high quality ruby slippers like this, but once finished they will look very beautiful, there's absolutely no words to describe how beautiful they really are.

Stuuuuning! There's a touch of sexiness about our ruby slippers. The right shoe is finished with red metallic sequins covered to give the shine and sparkle, and now it's back to work on the left shoe.

We've set the standard in high quality, hand-sewn ruby slippers to represent what they actually looked like when Judy Garland as Dorothy wore them way back in 1939 on the set of The Wizard of Oz. These are the sorts of Hollywood memorabilia that you don't want to store them hidden away, and you want to show them off to your visitors because they're that beautiful.

The ruby slippers will be finished soon so stay tuned for more photos. One lucky person will own this pair.

Judy Garland's ruby slippers is coming along nicely and we are just a week away from finishing this pair of hand-sewn ruby slippers. Meditation and concentration is required in this field of work.

This pair of size 5B replica ruby slippers near identical to those worn by a beautiful Judy Garland as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz is finished. I can't help but feel really proud of myself and the team.

Ruby slippers are never easy to make because you have to sew thousands of sequins to cover the entire shoes so you need to maintain a high level of concentration. I had to meditate through it, in order to produce such a high quality product like this.

This magical pair just takes your breath away, like all of our ruby slippers that have found a new home. They are now ready for sale for someone lucky to own an iconic piece of Hollywood and Judy Garland memorabilia.

It's another way of meditation because you're focused and relaxed. [smiley=happy.gif]

Your eyes and mind is focusing on one thing and that is sew in, sew out. In controlled meditation you focus on breathe in and breathe out, or you can keep your eyes opened and stay focused on an object.

It's a monumental job and it's definitely not easy. I can make hand-sewn ruby slippers for the next 10 years, and I will still be saying the same thing, it's not easy.

Creating high quality ruby slippers like the ones in the movie normally takes 3 months or more, up to a year at times, but without any distractions they can be done within a month.

This pair was made in quick time through meditation, and they represent the original ruby slippers when they were new.

As beautiful as Judy Garland. This is it, these are the ruby slippers made from her size 5 Bee Bee Bee shoe last, so they are not available anywhere else.

Close your eyes and tap your heels together three times.
And think to yourself, there's no place like home!

Meditation with non-lyrical soft musical tunes would work as well I think. 'Quiet' meditation puts me to sleep :D ;D. My experience is that music makes me more focus on doing concentration needed tasks like this sewing task that you are doing.

A quiet environment makes you concentrate better. That's why during exams and in some sports, you have to stay quiet. Easy listening music does help too in an office environment.

Sewing thousands of sequins is a very tedious task and I can't do it without meditation. It's the most focused and time-consuming job that I have ever done in my life. After finishing one pair of ruby slippers, the job is not done because I have to think about the next pair, and the next pair and so on.
