During my trip to San Diego in April, I got a sneak peek at the goods for a new online shop, Painted Bird. Nicole, the shop owner, discovered these colorful crocheted shoes from India. Once she felt how comfortable they were, she bought several more pairs. Together, she and her shop partner Jen have made it possible for everyone to own these cute shoes.
I’ve seen them in person, and trust me, they’re as awesome as they look online. And with so many colors, they’re bound to have one that you fall head over very heels in love with.
Their online shop just opened, so get over there and check them out!

Those are so cute and COLOURFUL. I’ve been sticking with flip flops this summer but these are darling. Thanks for sharing
Oooo this are fun!!!! I love flats. When I find I pair I like, I usually them in like three different colors. Why not?! I’m checking these out right now.
All my socal friends are blogging about these and I love them! I also love the support you’re giving to an indie shop. Awesome!
These are so cute! I love all the colors! I have a hard time wearing flats because of my big toe lol! But I’d love to try these! Thanks for sharing!
these are fantastic- but knowing me i would probably ruin them in no time flat (pun intended!) i wonder how long they are meant to last?

So happy and excited to hear that Nicole has gotten her dream company off the ground. Supporting an inide business and artisans seems like a win-win, for sure.
Love them! Especially now that I’m in some kind of crochet fever ;)
So cute! I love the bright colors and the texture is just perfect. The perfect summer shoe, indeed. That blue pair in the first photo needs to come live in my closet and on my feet.
