I don't own much purple (3 pieces, including the shoes) but I know it's supposed to be a great color for redheads </p> <p>Do you guys think it would be too much to pair these with a purple dress for a fancy birthday dinner? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395808 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 21:17:46 +0000 Patty 395808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You chose well in your colours and grade of glitter KTK! They look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395800 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 21:04:17 +0000 KeepTheKey 395800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to all for the kind words! I'm going to wear them to work tomorrow, so I should be able to get a pic then. Let's see what everyone at the gym has to say about purple, glittery high heels They already think I'm crazy for wearing any high heel at all.</p> <p>Eva: They were patent leather, I just roughed them up with some 100 grit sandpaper beforehand.</p> <p>QM: The shoes were black actually. I just used a LOT of glitter, lol! I used the Martha Stewart brand they sell at Michael's, because I liked the selection of colors the best. They also offer a pretty good variety of types (Fine, extra fine, a fine sort of confetti cut) Specifically, I used the extra fine in a shade of purple, a silver and a gunmetal.</p> <p>So, anyone want me to whip up a pair of glitter shoes for them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395681 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 18:13:12 +0000 Heather 395681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KTK, you are BRILLIANT! I love the choice of color. Now let's see them styled! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395677 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 18:10:53 +0000 Freckles 395677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally awesome. Thanks for the to do link. I can't even believe how much money you saved on this diy, brilliant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395614 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 16:54:20 +0000 Lisa 395614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These shoes came out great, it looks like you purchased them this way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395463 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 13:55:25 +0000 Queen Mum 395463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gorgeous! I'm assuming your shoes were purple to start with? Did you use regular cheap kid glitter or the expensive stuff?<br /> I"m going to definitely try this some day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395450 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 13:28:38 +0000 teri 395450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>awesome..... I love that you can make them any color you want. I have these I bought at Kohl's and love them. Glitter pumps are sooo much fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395431 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 13:10:05 +0000 rae 395431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, I like this tutorial! Must find cheap shoes to glitter up! You did a great job - yours look cooler than hers, IMO. The one-color glitter really pops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395424 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 13:02:38 +0000 chewyspaghetti 395424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would have never thought to do this- great DIY project! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395413 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 12:23:23 +0000 Jjsloane 395413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They came out beautifully! Nice job. I might try it myself. I think I already have everything I need. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395403 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 08:34:08 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 395403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fun! Clever you. So impressed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395391 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 06:37:50 +0000 Eva 395391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally gorgeous! They look professional. Love how you used 3 colors to add the depth. You glitter also looks more fine than the glitter pictured in the tutorial. What was the surface area of the original shoes? Would love to see the shoes on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395379 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 05:52:54 +0000 taylor 395379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing!! Yours actually look better than hers!! Thanks for sharing...I may just feel crafty enough to revive a pair of blah shoes with some sparkle:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395374 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 05:28:03 +0000 lyn* 395374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's such a cute tutorial! Thanks! I like the choice of one type of colour like you did (purple) vs. multicolours for hers. I may try this sometime! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395372 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 05:24:04 +0000 KeepTheKey 395372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks lyn! There are a boatload of DIY glitter shoe tutorials online, but I used this one, sans mimosa:</p> <p><a href="http://www.wearenotmartha.com/2010/12/make-your-own-glitter-flats/" rel="nofollow">http://www.wearenotmartha.com/.....ter-flats/</a></p> <p>Basically, equal parts extra fine glitter to Modge Podge. I used about 3 tablespoons of glitter (3 different colors) and got 4 coats out of it. Try it! It's fun, easy and not as messy as you'd think! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395369 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 05:17:20 +0000 lyn* 395369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa! I've been dying for a pair of sparkle shoes! Those pumps are pretty! Care to share your secret? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-glitter-shoes-i-did-it#post-395366 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 05:10:45 +0000 KeepTheKey 395366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pictures just don't do these shoes justice, but I'm going to post a ton of them anyway! I'm so proud of my pretty purple pumps :-D</p> <p>These were super easy to do, and they were quite cost effective since I used a clearance pair of shoes from Ross! I may start covering everything in glitter soon </p>
