Fleur Sandals
I love releasing new sandal designs and I’m thrilled to announce that my newest design is called Fleur. The Fleur are in white leather with Swarovski crystals in 5 different pastel colours and the hardware is in gold. I can make the Fleur in either flats or with a cute little 2cm heel for that little bit of a lift. The Fleur goes with most summer colours and in particular pastel colours. Check out my photos below and if you want to order be quick because I’m confident they will sell-out quickly. Love, Cheryl xx...
Dopamine Dressing
The latest fashion catch phrase I’ve heard about is “Dopamine Dressing.” It’s all about feel good, mood lifting fashion that is bright, happy, fun and even frothy. This can be in clothing, footwear and accessories. There’s no better time than summer to embrace this look and I certainly believe a lot of my sandal designs are a great example of dopamine dressing. I have designs in bright happy red, yellow and even Granny Smith green. Check them out above and below but if you prefer your clothing to be the dopamine part of your look then I also have several...
My Summer Dress Finds – January 2022
Being a Summer lover and a sandal maker, I’m always on the lookout for summer dresses. In fact, I’m very much a ‘dress girl’ and I grew up with my Mum making beautiful dresses for me. I would go to bed listening to the hum of my Mum’s sewing machine and when I’d wake up in the morning there’d be a new dress hanging on my door knob. These days my Mum refuses to make dresses for me. She thinks I’m too extravagant and she thinks I have too many dresses. Anyhow, I need new dresses all the time to...
Valentines Galentines Day Red Gift Idea
Whether you want to spoil yourself or a loved one on Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s Day this year, I suggest a pair of our red sandals is probably one of the most unique “red” gifts you’ll ever give or receive. I have two different red options for you. First of all, if you prefer plain sandals then I suggest my Lisa design. They’re in a flat leather sole with a beautiful shade of red on top in stunning suede with gold hardware. If you want some bling or something a bit more extravagant then I suggest my Amanda design. They’re...
Christmas Reds
Seriously it's time to order your Sandals now if you want them for Christmas. You know I handcraft each and every pair of Sandals when you place your order so I need time to make your Sandals for you. On top of this Australia Post are swamped with deliveries and there are still fewer flights scheduled which means there are delays in shipping your order and delays in Australia Post getting it to you. So, I highly recommend you order NOW for Christmas to avoid dissappointment. Lots of love and Merry Christmas to you and yours! ...
Calzolaio (Sandal Maker)
Creatore di sandali is Italian for Sandal Maker. The word Calzolaio is also often used. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever know I would end up being a Sandal Designer and Sandal Maker. I call it my mid-life creative detour or my mid-life career detour. It all happened by a chance encounter after studying and holidaying in Italy. But to make it happen I had to take the risk by jumping on a plane alone, working for no pay in Italy and then investing in my own start-up business. So, for anyone who has a dream, I hope...
