Description

Instructions

  1. Pick a pair of shoes you like the shape of. Nude colour is the best for AB or clear crystals. Otherwise match the colour of your crystal to your shoe. I got all my supplies fro ebay and my shoes were Carvela.

  2. Small 108348 2f2015 04 03 231806 img 1655

    Using a syringe, run a line of glue along the edge of the shoes and use the 2mm crystals to create a clean line alone the top and bottom of the shoes. Work in small sections to prevent glue drying out.

    Once you have created the outline of the shoes, work in small sections to fill in the shoes. I find popping on the larger crystals first and then filling in the rest of the space with the smaller was easiest.

    Once you have filled all the space in you will have some sparkly shoes! Leave for 48hrs to ensure the glue is completely set.
