Another Baltimore shoe for my sister's ride. Two of Baltimore's teams have bird mascots: the Baltimore Ravens (named in honor of famous Baltimorean Edgar Allen Poe) and the Orioles. Both teams share the color black in their team colors (Ravens = black and purple, Orioles = black and orange). Seeing the mash-up of the two teams on Pinterest (exhibit A) inspired me to make the Birds of Baltimore shoe.
The black, orange and purple glitter are all Recollections (the purple is Recollections color "muse"). The gold on the sole is Tulip. I like that you can flip to the orange side or the purple side depending on season or occasion.
The oriole was an orange bird (on clearance with some summer decor) that I converted with black glitter and black marabou. The raven was Halloween clearance (I have another 1 or 2 in the stash, some with witch hats that will probably get removed). Gold braid around the top edge, black rhinestones along the divide between purple and orange and black sequin trim along the bottom edge.
The "0" in 2014 is the Natty Boh man, complete with one googly eye:
Still needs "Muses" written on it in Tulip gold on the purple side, ready other than that.
