   The only thing that would make them better is if the Pull My Finger Viking was on there somewhere.  Awesome job Rudi!

   Absolutely stunning shoes!  Well Done.  I’d give you an A on the assignment.  (Of course I’d want to steal them too.)  Thank you so much for sharing.

   I sense a cottage industry is about to be born.  I would love a pair and I’m sure I’m not alone.  Rudi could sell at all the con’s and I’m sure sell out in seconds.

   Wonderful! They’d go with the romance novel corset that Mills and Boon Uk own. Someone made a whole corset from romance novel covers, and it’s beautiful!
   I have a picture of it here (at the bottom of the page)

   Yay for her brilliance!

    I am so not a shoe person (please, leave my Doc Martens alone), but even *I* recognize the wonder and fabulousness of this pair. Truly, that has to be the finest expression of decoupage I have ever seen.

    I don’t get a lot of opportunities to wear high heels (farm wife and all that), but I would pay mega-bucks for those shoes, if for no other reason that they would make me silly-happy-grin when I saw them in the closet. I agree with the others who see a business in the making…

    Those are amazing!  I squealed a little when I spotted one of my covers in there. 

    I would say I’m dying for a pair of my own, but then I think they’d be less special if there were a bunch out there.

    So instead, I wish they were magic shoes.  And they could be passed around Romanceland, and they would magically fit each woman, and it could be like the Sisterhood of the Traveling Awesomely Decoupaged Shoes, and wearing them would lead to better posture, enhanced confidence, and delicious summer romances.

    What a fabulous pair of shoes!! However, having old, not-so-good feet, could you make a pair with much lower heels & platforms – You could make them in a series so that you could include all the covers you put on the higher shoes – I guarantee you would make a bundle!

    Step aside Manolo Blanik, L.K Bennet and Jimmy Choo…..Rudi’s Romance Shoes are the most f**king awesome pair of high heels I’ve seen in a long time!

    I would love a pair of decoupage ballet flats……and hey Darlynne your Doc’s would look great decoupaged with romance covers.

    My knees would never forgive me for wearing those beauties, but if they came in a kitten heel I’d snap them up in a New York second!

    So much shoe lust right now.

    My safeword is “Party83”. I think that’s the last year I could wear shoes with that high a heel.

    These are fab!  I want a pair.

    And I love this: “As a community we are often judged by the cover of our books, as though these images of windswept, provocatively posed men and women represent the text within the novel. However, cover snark and conversely the celebration of well executed covers has become an integral part of discussions surrounding romance novels within communities like The Bitchery for exactly the reason that the images so rarely reflect the text.”

    There’s so much in this one paragraph.

    Dare I suggest a slight alteration to “Traveling Ultimate Decoupaged Shoes”?

    Because surely every romance reader could use a pair of STUDS.

    Well, as an art project these are really brilliant!  I personally would advise her to NOT mass produce these.  As a one-of-a-kind piece of art, they are much more precious.

    Of course now that the idea is out there, we’ll probably see cheap mass produced in China from vinyl ones for sale in about a year.  Can you trademark art?  If so, get to work on that.  Really really great idea as performance art as well.  Loved the picture of you wearing them with the gold lame pants.
