Glitter Shoes from Guest Mom


It's all the rage! Glitter shoes for kids. My friend Lisa shopped for glittery embellished shoes for her granddaughter Bodhi. She found them everywhere but the price was "out of this world!" Why buy when you can make! She bought some plain white shoes, dyed them purple and gave them to her friend Tammy who really glammed them up. Tammy used fabric paint in tubes, some glitter and some plain. She sprinkled colored glitter over some areas of paint before it dried. Then added some little hearts to match and there you have it. For the final touch, some ribbon shoelaces. Try it yourself and do your own thing. Try swirls, dots, zig-zags or stripes. Neon colors are big right now. Each pair will be different.
I know Bodhi will just love these.
