Dec 12: Ballet ornament

I've been sort of neglectful with my blog posts.  I've been ridiculously busy trying to get all this stuff done. 
Yesterday I started making a ballet themed ornament for my cousin.   A lot of the shoes had to be made up, especially the ribbons.  They had to be painted to say "2012".  I'm usually horrid with things I can't see, but I think I did ok.

The shoes are meant to look elegant and pointed at an angle.  It seems like no matter what I tried, they didn't look like they were angled right.  I don't know why.  The proportions might be off...  but it's crunch time, so my ability to be picky is limited.
