Caroline Alixe Rhuys is a member of the artistic community in Reno, NV. Caroline uses needle felting, painting, and beading to create multi-media art for her customers to wear and display in their homes. She creates her upcycled jewelry, clothing, accessories, and home décor from materials found in local thrift stores and her extensive stash of vintage fabrics, buttons, and hankies. Some favorite materials are silk, leather, buttons, beads, wool felt, wool and denim jackets, ribbons, and found objects. Caroline likes meeting other artists and supporting them by sharing their work throughout her online and personal networks.
Fabric and lace may be attached to canvas shoes with various types of glue. When I am happy with the design I apply at least three coats of gel medium to protect the shoes.
You don’t have to limit your shoe colors to commercially available selections if you can use scissors and apply glue.
