How To Create Bronze Baby Shoes

 

You can treasure the memory of your child's first steps forever

by bronzing his first set of baby shoes. And you can do it

yourself relatively inexpensively and easily.

Your first step will be to clean the shoes thoroughly. With a

damp rag, clean the shoes of all dirt and polish. It is best to

complete the cleaning by rubbing the shoes with a rag saturated

in denatured alcohol. All wax and polish must be removed. Now

allow the shoes to dry.

Next you will want to arrange the shoes as you want them to be

bronzed. Tie the laces and arrange them properly. Adjust the

tongue so that it touches the sides of the shoe. You may want

to hold the laces and tongue in place with a little rubber

cement. Now drive a tiny hole through the sole of each shoe and

loop a string or wire around it. You are now ready to begin

bronzing.

To prepare your liquid bronze use bronze, copper or gold powder

and mix the powder with a fast drying spar varnish, stirring

well and adding the powder until you have a liquid about like

paint. Stir to prevent particles from settling on the bottom.

You will probably want to mix a fresh batch of the liquid bronze

for each job.

 

To apply the bronze, use a good camel hair brush and paint

shoes, inside and out, with several coats. If there are dull

spots when the liquid dries, it means the liquid has soaked

right into the material and more coats are needed until the

finish is even and glossy. Hang up each shoe by the loop of

string to dry between coats and clean the brush each time.

When the final coat is dry, you can create an "antique" effect

by mixing a little burnt umber or black color in oil with the

bronzing liquid and painting it into the creases of the shoe

with a small brush.

If you would like the shoes to be heavy and rigid, fill them

with plaster of paris to about 1/2" from the top and let them

dry for several days before starting to paint.

 

You will find bronze powder at any good paint or hardware store

or even a printing supply house.

You will be amazed at the very professional job you have done

using this method. Perhaps you will do such a good job and

enjoy it so much you may want to begin a service doing it for

others. It is really a lovely way to make your treasured

memories last forever.
