How I Made These Double Colour Slipper For My Friend Harhess As A Birthday Gift

HELLO HIVE

Greetings to all my fellow needleworkers and friends on the hive blockchain, it's been an overly engaging and stressful way to start the week from my end, but then I felt it won't be nice if I fail to grace your sight with the birthday gift I made for my friend Hive account@harhess , who celebrated his special day yesterday.

Like I said earlier, today as been a stressful one for me, because I woke up as earlier as possible so I can be among the first to see the doctors, because I was scheduled to go for medication today, due to my poor state of health, but while I was waiting, I saw someone who was brought in to the hospital in an ambulance, I overheard he needed blood transfusion immediately but there is no one around to pay for him, so I decided to donate some blood for him, since my blood luckily match up with what he needed.

I was unable to leave the hospital until around 6pm, and while on my way home I was called that I have an interview I must attend by 8am tomorrow morning in Lagos, so I just went home park the necessity and I'm presently sitting inside a moving car heading to Lagos @ 9:00pm.

Well not to bore you with my petty talk, below are the process of how I made the Slippers.

MATERIALS USED

• Black and brown leather material
• Linning
• Oci Gum
• Shoe wet
• Nora outsole
• Marco size 4

MAKING PROCESSES

• So in making the Slippers, I cut leather, apply gum on the lining and join the leather to it, and then cut each one out.

---

• I then process into sewing the parts of the upper and the Marco meant for the insole.

---

• The next step was joining the upper Design to the insole and adjusting the shape with my wooden shoe last.
  

---

• Proceeding, I rub gum on the sole and the insole, then join both together.

---

• And here is how gorgeous the Slippers I gift my friend look like.

Note: The process of how I made the insole, cut and added the shoe wet to the Nora outsole isn't in the above toturial, but you can check my previous shoe making related post to see the various ones I made.

My friend Hive account@harhess wasn't aware he was the one I was making the footwear for, in fact he even assisted me while I was working on it, but was suprise when I presented it to him as his birthday gift later in the day.

Thanks so much for staying with me this far, have a blessed and productive week ahead.
