Paper Witch Shoes

I think this is quite possibly the cutest party favor box!

These paper shoes designed by designer Ellen Hutson are simple to make and so cute.  I made witch shoes because I was having a lunch to celebrate three friends birthdays the week of Halloween.

I think they would be fun with pretty paper for a little girls princess party, a bridesmaid luncheon or girls lunch. I can even see them done in red glitter for a Wizard of Oz party.

I filled the shoes with chocoIate and set them on the center of the plate. It made the table look really festive.

To make your own paper shoes download the templates. Trace around the templates onto cardstock for the shoe and onto paper for the lining.  Score all dotted lines with a bone folder.  I used glue stick  to put the shoe together.  Miniature clothes pins worked wonderfully to hold the shoes together while drying. Embellish the shoes to fit your party theme.

   I’m love these and I’m making about 20 for my sisters Bridal Shower, I have about 4 to go. When you go to a craft store, I suggest finding a paper you like that has a nice pattern ON BOTH SIDES. This will eliminate the need for the inner soul pattern all together. Also, the paper with a pattern on both sides is more sturdy. It cuts the time in half. They are adorable. I’m using elmer’s glue.
