Revamped, sugar skull shoes.
 <  Image 1 of 3  > 

I needed some awesome shoes to wear for The Day of the Dead (Nov.1 and 2). For those of you that don't know, it's not associated with Halloween. It's celibrated all over Mexico, Central, and South America to honor the dead and it is not a morbid holliday. Families get together in rememberance of those that have passed.

Based on an original project in a book available here

Fantastic job! Did you create the images yourself or find them somewhere else?

I serched on-line. I think some of the tag lines I used were "tattoo skull", "calavera", and "sugar skull". I don't really remember how I found it...
