Behind every shoe there is a STORY

Heard alot about movies,songs,an antique, ever thought what makes all these things interesting?

there is always a same reason behind all of it, A STORY - a story which makes us imagine things which we wouldn't have ,A story which makes us think twice about things.

I am priyanka gusain www.facebook.com/zubiyaarts I make shoes out of stories, weird? 

No , its not . I do this for a living,every shoe I make has a story behind it,someone may know about it or not , Here i am sharing my insights to my work. every time i sit to make a new design i think about something which has passed to my subconscious mind in past and how is it connected to me.

The product confessions shoe-  is the ballerina so much close to me that i feel like sharing the story behind it.

STORY- All i ever wanted was to wear something which actually showed how i felt sometimes, smiley badges were a great help that time but i wanted something more than that, when i started off with painting ballerinawww.zubiya.com i felt like painting all my dreams into them and share it with world.
In my head the story started with a guy who wants to share likeness with the girl he likes,its like a MINI LOVE STORY IN A SHOE.The perfect love story you can have which usually starts off with a flower and ends with a happily ever after. Maybe its my love story,pretty cliché but i can live with that..hahaha!
So the urge for me to draw the short version of date on a shoe seemed to be quite interesting. The shoe confessions as its name suggests is the confession of a guy to a girl he likes and he wants to confess his feeling. For me this pair is a perfect valentine gift,bullet proof love can never fail to impress me maybe you can try it on to some of those pretty girls out there and feel the difference between a soulless shoe and soulful shoe. Not everyday you can find a shoe with a story.
XOXO

hello everyone, this style is very easy to make...
ALL U NEED IS 
1) a pair of old shoe
2)loads of color to splash
3)newspaper to cover the respective floor on which u are going to place the shoe
how to do it:
remove shoe laces,place newspaper on the floor,clean the shoe with sand paper to remove dust and any material, use different colors(bright,neon colors) to splash you can use brush of different sizes depending how big u want the splash to be,bigger brush=bigger splash
leave the shoe to get dry , make sure there is no lump of paint on the shoe if there is try to clean it because if there is a lump it will chip off with in few days....
here u go (now u have an amazing and not at all boring pair of shoe)
GET ZUBED :)

ITS A glitzy day.
as we are girls and we love what ,so lets glitter our old shoes...
ALL U NEED-old shoe(once you've messed with these shoes, they'll be glittered for life),loads of glitter preferable, material of the shoe though––leather and patent leather will usually work well. However, suede and similar textures can be difficult for the glue and glitter to adhere to,use fabric glue or mod podge glue.
step 1) use masking tape to cover the are in which u doesn't want the glitter
step 2)cover your floor with newspaper to reuse the residue glitter
step 3)apply glue over the shoe in different sections and glitter them
step 4) do step 3 until the whole shoe is covered and let it dry
step 5) brush off the extra glitter and redo again if needed..
GET ZUBED AND GLITTERED AWAY.....
