I was thinking that I would go around the house and take some photos of some of my favorite things that I like to collect.
One group of those are antique baby and toddler shoes.
Can you imagine having to fasten all of these tiny buttons on your child’s shoes?
Just look at the worn edge on the side of this shoe. It was probably handed down from one child to the next. I just left the scraggy little shoe lace that was in one of the shoes.
These little white leather high tops were quite special in their day I am sure.
And then I have some little orphans……………….just the right shoe. I would love to see some of your collections. Just think about all of the special things that are just waiting to have their pictures taken.
I’ll be back another day with another grouping.…….we only need three of something to be a collection…………. right?

Love your shoe collection, Linda!! Can't wait to see more of your collections! Does collecting dust bunnies count as a collection? LOL
Take care,

What a wonderful 'fetish' you have! Love the little shoes!! I think I have some serious fetishes too!
Love the little shoes, so neat and I can't imagine having to button them on a wiggley baby:)
They are precious aren't they?
I have Kens dads baby shoes. They are brown leather, and just love them.
I can't imagine having to button those things on a squirming baby.

Linda, I love them! I used to collect them too, several years ago. But like somebody crazy, I sold them! I only had a few pairs but they were so sweet, just like your's. I have thought a lot about collecting them again one day.
Thanks for posting about them. It sure made me smile this morning, and I needed that!

I love the old baby button up shoes too. I have several pairs of them...I wish I had more!
Thanks for sharing yours.
