My boyfriend used to be a very good DJ but suffered from a major burnout some time ago. Now he has recovered well, his friend wanted him to play again at his party (called Minimax), but just for fun. So I made him some funny shoes, only for that one night. They are very bling bling  Grin

I started with stinky sneakers, they were ready for trash:


And I ended up with these Cheesy





I have these mirror balls in my garden, but because of the stormy weather one of them crashed. So I superglued the pieces to the toes of the shoes. (It holds up quite good) Than I cut a piece from a leather tie to cover up the Phat Pharm logo. I painted (approximately) the same thing as pictured on the promo poster of Minimax. I'm only showing one side because the other shoe has some dirty words  Tongue Because he isn't taking it all to seriously (he isn't allowed anymore) he plays under the name 'Yevgeni' (in Belgium this is definitely a totally unattractive name for a DJ) Tongue

Thanks for taking a peep!

We all make mistakes, and then when you've made enough, they call it experience.

Sure he will, he's a bit crazy too. He asked himself to do something with those shoes. He is showing them to all his friends now  Grin
