Bronzing Modern Baby Shoes
June 5, 2008 magzh902
I think everyone has a pair of their baby booties. I’ve haven’t seen mine for a while but I do remember having them in a box. They are so tiny and also perfect as if they’ve never been worn. I was just browsing about the internet and found this unusual technique of bronzing modern baby shoes.
Wow, I would never in a million years have ever thought about doing anything like that. I wonder who came up with the idea. It’s just so bizare. I’m not that sure I particularly like the idea and I would never have my own pair or baby booties bronzed but it’s certainly something that people might want to consider. Especially if you’re trying to find ideas for baby gifts.

My grandmother came up with that idea…in 1929. She was the “mother of baby shoe bronzing.”
She created the entire baby shoe bronzing business…and it’s regaining its past popularity. Sentimental mothers everywhere are having their baby’s first shoes preserved as lifetime keepsakes.
Each time they see their baby’s bronzed shoes out on display, they relive the happy memories of baby’s first steps.
I’m not saying this just because I own the business (which I do). It’s really true!
And check out the website. You’ll see that bronzing baby shoes is less costly than you might think. Not much for keepsakes that last a lifetime.
