  Step 1

  You will need:
  - A large brush
  - glitter (I used a multicoloured mix)
  - newspaper (to protect the surroundings!)
  - Mod Podge paste
  - a jar/mixing container
  - and a pair of shoes. (Preferably black as this works well for the galaxy effect)

  Step 2

  Put a sizeable amount of Mod Podge into your jar. Sprinkle lots (and lots!) of glitter on top of it. Make sure you have newspaper laid out – this is the part which always seems to go messily! Stir the glitter into the mix so it is nice and even.

  Step 3

  Paint your shoes! Don’t worry if the shoe looks dangerously white – it’s meant to look that way, I promise! When I did my latest pair; I was distinctly nervous when I saw how visible the Mod Podge was! Not to worry; when dry, it becomes completely transparent – with a glossy sheen too.

  Step 4

  Enjoy wearing your brand new galaxy shoes!

Thanks for the inspiration - I've been meaning to do this to the soles of some black heels for a while, and thanks to this tutorial reminding me to do it/how easy it is, I've finally done it. I used the same mixture of glitter and mod podge as you, so I basically did this but only on part of the shoes.

May I ask which brand of glitter you used?
