Custom Painted "TOMS" ~ Emily's Zoo

While out for birthday supplies at Family Dollar, I stumbled upon a pink pair of faux TOMS for Emily. I customized them and now I want to find some more.
Her sisters are already planning their designs. Plus, I want a pair!






Emily wanted an elephant and giraffe. So I played around in Google images until I found a design she liked. These shoes are inspired by the link below.

UPDATE: The hubs suggested I spray the shoes with a waterproof finish. 
He handed me a "clear" lacquer...it turned out to be white spray paint. 
Apparently, our brains had a simultaneous duurrrrr moment. 
Well, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

The shoes now have a worn in, muted look.
The softer colors suit her wardrobe.
