Greetings to everyone, I hope this meet you well, it's been an engaging and as well stressful past few weeks in my store, as I try to meet up with every order of my clients who want to use the footwear's to celebrate Eid, and today I'll be gracing your sight with the diy process of how I made this gorgeous black leather half shoe.
Most times when I clients visit my store and demand for a particular type of footwear, once we discuss on prize and he/she couldn't meet up the the prize that's convenient for me, I usually tell them I'll be using a materia which isn't the best quality, though they're also good, but to get my part of the workmanship, that's the way out, but if their named prize is too low, I'll rather not make a footwear for such person, than use a bad Material, that'll depreciate the reputation of my brand.
So without further ado, follow me as I take you through the step by step process of how I made this half shoe.
