Wow, that’s such a wonderful thing to look back at and remember. I always wanted to be in ballet 🩰, instead I wound up on the Olympic swimming team, my heart was in a dance class. Congratulations on all you did🙏❤️just Julie

It'd be so cute to shadow box them with photo's (if you have them) along with other things like dried flowers or accessories🙌🏻

These shoes, and all the achievements they represent, clearly have a special place in your heart.
Would be amazing to build a really long lucite case with dramatic lighting to display all the shoes/stories on a wall.

I still have the last pair of pointe shoes I wore in high school! I was never going to be a professional, but I am so proud that I went on pointe, especially as a 6’1” girl!!

They would be lovely in display boxes, some call them shadow boxes but its a deep frame you can put items in to display them. You can put backgrounds of paper, card or fabric similar to your outfit would look pretty

I don’t dance or watch ballet, but you randomly came into my reels in November. I have loved watching your videos every since. Please keep sharing. It is beautiful to see someone sharing their passion which they have made into a profession. (Which that, I have done…therefore, I get it all, what you share.) Bless you.

Omg did I hear Giselle... I remember 37 years ago in Scarborough, ENGLAND when my god father took me to the ballet to watch Giselle. It will always be my favourite ❤ I was only 10 and I cried at the end...

If you ever have kids, that would be such a sweet keepsake to remember you by!

So many wonderful roles! Of course a ballerina's career is always going to be quite young but it's amazing how young you were doing these! Would love to see old pictures 🥹

I like to keep my most beat up amd dead shoes. The ones that I never wanted to stop wearing, whether I performed in them, rehearsed, or just took class in them❤

I wake up w so much anxiety and panic every day until I get ready and out the door. For no reason. So I put your videos on bc they’re always so calming. Idk what it is but your voice and the ballet and just something about you is incredibly calming to me. Thank you!

Loved hearing about your beautiful memories ❤ it might be nice to put some (or all of them) in display cases or have a special area dedicated to them. I take pictures of things that hold special memories like that, too, and keep them in an album. All things wear out eventually, but pictures can last forever.

This is making me feel better about wanting to keep the running shoes I did my first marathon in. The shoes are a big part of a big accomplishment!

A shadow box with a Pic of the performance with the pair of points would be really cool. Like a trophy wall.

Put them on display some day! They are such precious memories. I only kept 2 pairs; my very first pointe shoes and my only lead role - Coppeliá. Got really injured less than a month after and had to quit.
