Love Your Toms Longer!

I don't know about you, but I love my Toms!  I have the silver, glittery Toms, and Oh!  They are just sparkly, fancy, fun!  They have formed to my feet and are super comfy.  Plus they make me feel good with the One-For-One social movement behind each pair sold.  The thing about Toms, though, is that everyone has them!  Now, its quite common to see people embellishing their Toms and giving them a bit of personality.
Not too long ago the amazing Katie Marshall asked me if I would take on her well-loved Toms and breath a little life back into them.  Below are the 'Before' and 'After' photos!  Thanks Katie for giving me free reign, and being so trusting with your Toms!
Before
A common problem with Toms...holes form in the toes over time
There was a small hole in the back heel of one of the shoes
One for One
After!  Katie wanted something a little neutral, but still fun.  I think this color yellow goes with lots of things!  And it didn't hurt that Blue and Gold are the colors of her alma mater, UNCG!
Loved the lace.  Where I could, I hand sewed, though sewing in the toes of shoes it tricky!
I stitched up the hole in the back and reinforced it with some sturdy fabric glue.
Thanks for the great photo Katie!  Enjoy!
