I was flicking through Juicy Couture's online catalogue, and I was irked to discover a pair of shoes listed for 170 dollars. I was like "I could TOTALLY make those" and so I (ish) did. I didn't have grey shoes, however, so I used a teal, and mixed a color to compliment the teal better than yellow would have.

I was flicking through Juicy Couture's online catalogue, and I was irked to discover a pair of shoes listed for 170 dollars. I was like "I could TOTALLY make those" and so I (ish) did.

Instructions

  1. Remove all embellishment that your flats might have before work.

  2. Small dscf1490

    Cover your shoes in tape to create the "stripes" it helps to start from the back, at an angle, and then work forward, slowly straightening your tape lines, until at the toe, they're totally straight.

  3. Small dscf1494

    Paint them with whatever color you chose.

  4. Small dscf1500

    Peel off tape before the paint dries. This way, if there were gaps and your stripes bled into each other, you can wipe it off. Also, it helps prevent the cracking of the paint.

  5. Wait for the paint to dry completely, then paint on a layer of the Modge Podge. Wait for this to dry as well.

  6. Small dscf1512

    Glue on your silk flowers. Viola! Done.
