  Step 1

  Gather your materials

• 

  Step 2

  Including your shoes

• 

  Step 3

  Remove the laces

• Step 4

  Stuff the shoe with newspaper to avoid getting paint on the inside of the shoe

• 

  Step 5

  Tape the section of the shoe you want to paint. Press down hard so no paint can seep into the section you want to be kept clean (try and be very precise)

• 

  Step 6

  Begin painting, use a large brush for the larger section of the shoes

• 

  Step 7

  Paint paint paint. It can be messy as you can always do another coat, avoid getting the sole of the shoe and the inside

• 

  Step 8

  Paint

• 

  Step 9

  Use a small brush for the precise areas (logo) be careful, if you get any on the section you want to be kept clean use a damp cloth to wipe away the paint as soon as possible

• 

  Step 10

  Glitter paint, yay!

• 

  Step 11

  Glitter, glitter, glitter

• Step 12

  Fix up any areas that are obviously uneven, peel away the tape being careful to not pull any of the paint off

• 

  Step 13

  Finished! You can dye the laces to match the new colour, or if you wanted a more glitzy look add some fine glitter (see my DIY Glitter wedge tutorial for these steps)
  Enjoy!
