Instructions

  1. Small dsc04411 1318960834

    These are all the items you'll need. Everything except the cutting or exacto knife.

  2. Small dsc04412 1318961752

    Take your crappy sneakers and clean them as much as you can. Yeah, i cleaned mine lol they're really old so there wasn't much i could for them.

  3. Small dsc04415 1318961076

    Masking tape all the border of the sneaker you want to glitter. Even if we're really careful it can get messy.

  4. Small dsc04420 1318961198

    Mix well in your cup the glitter and glue. I used the whole package of gold and like half of the pink one. Have fun and mix the colours you want to match or contrast the ones on your shoes.

  5. Small dsc04422 1318961325

    Paint or glue or whatever your sneaker. Make sure that it's a thin layer because it's better to add a lot of thin layers rather one too thick that will probably never dry.

  6. Small dsc04426 1318961589

    Wait for it to dry (make it faster by placing them near a heater). When it's COMPLETELY dried you can add the next layer. Use as much as you need to get the glitter effect you want.

    After all your layers are dried help yourself with a knife to remove all the masking tape.

  8. Small dsc04439 1318961976

    Peel carefully so that you don't remove anything more than the masking tape.

  9. Small dsc04447 1318964083

    Do a little clean up (i didn't do a very good job lol).
