WANTED: Red Ruby Slippers!

[Pianobiz 10]

Im trying to find some red glitter shoes for my little girl. They would complete the "Dorothy" outfit. They are only to wear for a party so didnt want to pay alot for them. Ive looked on Ebay, but cant find any within my budget (around £10). She is a size 13.5 - 1. If anyone can help or knows where i can get some please get in touch.

The shoes were silver in the original book.

 

What is the symbolic meaning of Dorothy's silver slippers in the original Wizard of Oz?

They have these at Meadowhall but might be above your budget.

i bought plain cheap black pumps for my girls, covered them in PVA glue and red glitter/sequins, let them dry and then put another coat of PVA, it dries clear like a varnish, worked a treat, just for a one-off, they hung them up in their rooms as decoration after the party.
