Monster High shoes

The final wall-hanging display case has really small spaces, so only fairly small shoes fit into it. Mainly that means Monster High dolls, Sybarite and CED dolls. The link info below the picture again states for which dolls the shoes are made.

Various types of shoes

The next part of my collection is yet again in a display case in my bookshelf. The top shelf contains shoes for Tonner's American Model, Jessica Rabbit and 16" Miss Piggy. The second shelf has shoes for Tonner's Agnes Dreary on the left, and two pairs for Mezco's Living Dead Dolls on the right. The small shoe in the middle is a charm that I cast using tin and a silicone mold. The third shelf has one pair (the yellow ones) for Rini and three pairs for Jolina by Zapf Creation, and the bottom row has one pair I made for Sybarite, plus her original shoes.



Here are the links to available blog posts:

Top shelf: first pair (Finnish blog), second pair, third pair, fourth pair

Second shelf: first pair & second pair, fourth pair

Third shelf: second pair (similar to the orange ones in the post about the third pair), third pair

Bottom shelf: first pair

Some boots

The first picture shows another display box in my bookshelf. The black boots are the first ever pair of doll boots I have made. They are for the same old doll as the flat-soled shoes in the first collection post. The post about these is in the Finnish blog. The other two pairs are for Tonner's American Model doll. The post about the beige boots is here, and the other boots can be found here.



The next display case is hanging on the wall. I have three of these, and this is the one that can accommodate boots. The others are suitable for smaller shoes. The red pair is for a Lipstik doll, and the boots under them are for Tonner's 16" Miss Piggy as are the ones below those. The two pairs on the right are repainted Monster High boots, upper for Clawdeen, lower for Draculaura.



The next picture shows a display case in my bookshelf. I will probably later use it for boots, but at the moment, there are some shoes for Monster High Gooliope (upper row) and Jolina by Zapf Creation (bottom row). The red shoes with stiletto heels are new, and the darker pair is the first one I made for Gooliope. The black pair on the bottom left is the first pair of gladiator sandals I made, and the two others I made while writing the first Doll Shoe Projects book.

More of my collection

The next part of the collection is two display boxes in my bookshelf. These shoes are mostly for Madame Alexander's Cissy and Tonner's 16" Miss Piggy.



We'll start with the display box on the left. The bottom shelf has one pair of shoes for Cissy and two pairs of boots for Monster High dolls. The rest are shoes for Miss Piggy. There's no blog post for one pair, which I think I made when writing the Techniques book.


Top row: left pair, right pair

Second row: left pair

Third row: left pair, right pair

Bottom row: leftmost pair (Finnish blog), middle pair, rightmost pair


The display box on the right only has shoes for Madame Alexander's Cissy. These blog posts are all in the Finnish blog.


Top row: leftmost pairmiddle pair, rightmost pair

Second row: leftmost pair

Third row: leftmost pairmiddle pair, rightmost pair

Bottom row: middle pair, rightmost pair

First part of my collection

I started making doll shoes about 20 years ago, so I have accumulated quite a bit of them, although I did sell some for a brief time around 2004. The money I got for the ones I sold wasn't worth it because of the time it takes to make just one pair, so later I just traded some with friends for other doll items.


This is the first post of showing my collection and providing links to the relevant blog posts, if available. Let's start with some of the older ones, although future posts will have old and new mixed as I tend to group the shoes by the doll for which they were made.


The glass box I have on top of one of my dollhouses contains shoes for the following dolls: The shoes in the front row are for an old, 18", hollow plastic doll with no manufacturer markings. The doll has flat feet, so I haven't made very many pairs for it. The pair with pale green insoles is for Tonner's 16" Miss Piggy, and the rest are for Madame Alexander's Cissy.



Front row: The rightmost pair can be seen in a post in the Finnish blog. The post also has a picture of the doll. The brown shoes next to them are made after a Manolo Blahnik design. The blue shoes are made after a Mary Quant design and the post is in the Finnish blog.


Miss Piggy's shoes can be found in this blog. The posts about Cissy's shoes are all in the Finnish blog, links below. 

Back row: First from left, second pair, third pair, fourth pair.

Middle row: First from leftsecond pairfourth pair.


It seems that there is no blog post about the ones in which I used a zipper in the upper (middle row, third pair). I thought there would be, but it's possible I just posted it in Flickr at the time (when I was still using it).
