Description

Instructions

  1. Small lostinthehazediy1

    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)

  2. Small lostinthehazediy2

    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.

  3. Small lostinthehazediy5

    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.

    Enjoy wearing your brand new galaxy shoes!
