Made some glitter pumps!

[MelissaAnn]

I bought a pair of glitter pumps at Bakers a while back and havent worn them yet because I was feeling a little guilty buying them, so I took them back and decided to try and make some myself! Heres how they turned out..

omg they totally look like you bought them that way!! great job, how did you do it?

 

[MelissaAnn]

Thank you! I got the plain shoes from Ross ($15!) and got the glitter and some spray adhesive from Hobby Lobby. Taped off the inside of the shoe, sprayed, and sprinkled the glue. It was a HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE mess but they were worth it! I am going to Modge Podge them after the glitter has some time to set, to seal them, so all the glitter doesnt come off!

Great job! They look pro! Haha.

I was thinking about doing something similar awhile back but with rain boots!

The sealer was throwing me off tho! Thanks for posting this

Just wanted to let you know, I mixed a ton of glitter into the Modge Podge, let the shoes set for a bit so the glitter on them could "settle" then painted on coats of MP, one at a time. I let them dry over night. Wore them out Saturday, to a busy club, and my feet got stepped on a few times, and they are still in perfect condition and the glitter doesnt shed everywhere!! HTH!
