About Us. Our Work. Shoes have arrived this morning and I must say they are first class. Believe me I will be spreading the word about the professional job that you have done.
They were a present for my son and daughter in law and I can tell you that they will be so very happy. Being able to cherish the lasting memory of his tiny shoes, that most people just don't think of doing with them.
Daniel once again I thank you from the heart, be proud of the service that you provide because you are doing a first class job. Many, many thanks. Thank you so much for my baby shoes they are absolutely beautiful I would never have dreamed that they could be so nice. There are actually bronze kits available at craft stores though parents should be aware these might be slightly different than shoes bronzed professionally. Those created by professionals tend to utilize an electroplating method, while bronzing shoes at home means applying one or more coatings of a bronze mix to shoes.
Both home and professional methods to make bronze baby shoes can produce pleasant results that last for years. For baby safety, these should probably not be displayed while the child is young enough to take an interest in them. Bronzing a first pacifier, for instance, and displaying it when a child is giving up his or her pacifier, may not be wise.

Wet a soft cloth with water. Then take the damp cloth and carefully clean the shoes. Rub the shoes with denatured alcohol. Once you have removed as much dirt as possible with the damp rag, rub the shoes with denatured alcohol. This will remove any remaining wax or polish from the shoes. Take a dry, clean cloth and saturate it with alcohol. Then gently rub the entire surface of each shoe. Allow the shoes to dry. Once you are done rubbing the shoes with denatured alcohol, let them dry completely.
Allow the shoes to air dry. Do not attempt to bronze shoes that are still damp from the cleaning process. Part 2. Make a hole in the sole of each shoe. You will be stringing a piece of wire through each shoe, and using the wire to hang the shoes to dry in between coats of bronze. Try using a box cutter, knife, or drill to make the hole. Make sure you exercise caution while cutting the hole, and avoid accidentally cutting yourself.
String wire through the hole. Begin by creating a wire loop for each shoe. Take some sturdy, yet flexible wire and string it through the hole in the sole of the shoe.
Then twist the wire to create a closed loop that is large enough to use for hanging the shoe. Repeat the process for both shoes. Arrange the shoes.
