Melty Shoes
Wedding Services in Ripley, Derbyshire
Our companywas established in 2012 by professional artist and designer Rachel Prince. We provide custom decorated shoes for any occasion and any gender, or age group.Do you have a pair of pumps, Converse, boots, Keds, evening or any other 'everyday' shoes laying around that needs a nice, new make over? Well, send them to us and we will give them a Melty Shoes style spruce up!
Our styles can accommodate any taste and, so long as your shoes aren't patent, PVC or leather, we can decorate them for you.
Are you planning a wedding? Well, we believe that our custom shoes would be the perfect idea!
Think about it... Walking down the aisle in a pair of unique, one of a kind shoes that only you own. What could be more perfect than that? (Besides the person you are spending the rest of your life with, of course!)
We will strive to give you exactly what you want, employing our high quality design skills and eye for detail to make sure that you feel just that extra bit special on your big day.
And yes, we can do the Groom's shoes too! (Providing they are a light colour and are not leather.)
What sort of supplies do you use? - Well, that all depends on what material your shoes are made from. If they are canvas, or other similar materials we can use fabric paints and even professional colour markers. If they are silk, we will only use silk paints to ensure that the colours do not run and the fabric does not get ruined.
What designs would be perfect for my wedding? - We recommend something that suits your personality. Or maybe even a homage to your and your intended. Also, we can reproduce a design should you request it, for example if you have a favourite piece of cloth, or lace.
Who says the dress and wedding cake have to be the only flashy things? Show off your personality in style!

About Us
read moreWix is the brainchild of our 3 founders: Avishai Abrahami, Nadav Abrahami and Giora Kaplan. The idea was born (on the beach) while they were constructing a website to be the basis of another start-up idea. The tech savvy trio quickly discovered that creating their own website was difficult, frustrating and very costly. It was this agonizing experience that led them to a light bulb moment - build a platform that empowered anyone to create their own website with no coding or design skills needed.
