DIY SPARKLE SHOES!


DIY Sparkle shoes!!!!!!!!!!





Here's a quick guide how to make glitter shoes!
Okay so everyone knows from shopping that glitter shoes can be pretty pricey and sometimes have an awful tendency to flake or peel! Well I have the solution to this!
MAKE YOUR OWN!

This cost me literally the price of pva glue and a small cartoon of sliver glitter.
You can get both supplies from any craft store and of coarse the pair of shoes! I pick a black pair of heels that I got in pennys months ago for 12 euro and I was bored of the look of them so I said why not design my own? J

So first step is to cover the shoes in pva glue! Sounds a little scary but its like being back in school!

Gently squeeze some pva glue onto the shoes all over or wherever is desired! I only did the heels as I didn’t think I had enough glitter to do the entire shoe!

Then use an old paint brush or even your finger and then spread the glue out! It takes seconds; make sure you keep moving so the glue doesn’t set! If you’re going to do the whole shoe I advise doing it in sections so the glue doesn’t dry out!

Then over an old shoe box, towel, newspaper, magazine anything that will catch the glitter sprinkle the glitter over the wet glue. Shake off excess glue and then slowly dab the glitter with your finger! Don’t go too hard or the glue will go lumpy this is just to push the glitter in the whole way!

Follow the same method for your phone cover, iPod, purse, bag whatever it is! Three easy steps, glue, brush, shake and done J

The options are endless so experiment :) 
It literally took me 5 minutes and who doesn’t love glittery things? J
