The idea for Twinkle Toes came about while trying to find a pair of dress socks, while out of town on vacation, for my then 2 year old daughter. Trying to find a pair of fancy dress socks led me on a frustrating mall exploration for the perfect pair. After perusing some of my favorite children's specialty stores, I was shocked by the absence of cute, fun dress socks! After finally finding a pair of beaded socks in the very back crowded corner of a mall specialty store, I thought: "Why should I have to rely on expensive boutiques to find a pretty pair of socks? I can make these on my own." So was born the idea for a web-based business catering to the custom client: Twinkle Toes!

More Hanukkah socks for Consignment

All of the Hanukkah designs posted to date are going to the school store at Donna Klein Jewish Academy...Here are a few more designs

A more whimsical design combining pony beads and tri beads in fun layout.




These next two pair are a bit more intricate. The Hanukkah present pair have a double go-around of tri beads on the cuff, and the all pony-bead pair also have a double go-around on the cuff, resulting in a crisscross type design.
