A great way to reuse old sneakers and make them fabulous!
Since I was dorothy this year for halloween, I wanted to pull the look together with some "ruby red slippers". All I could find was really high heels that were sparkly and pricy. I was not about to throw away money if I could make them myself. So I decided why not do my own rendition of Dorothy's Ruby Red slippers by using my old pair of converse! I loved the outcome and I want to share my success with you!

Step 1OPTIONAL:
You don't have to do this but if you would like, you can prep your shoes by washing them. I put mine in the washing machine. DO NOT use fabric softener! -
Step 2OPTIONAL:
Unless you want the whole shoe to be sparkly, I took some painter's tape and lined the rubber part of the shoe with it. -
Step 3Taking a paper plate, squirt some of that paint on to it and add in some glitter. Mix these two together until you get a thicker mixture.
-
Step 4Use the mixture and paint all of the shoe. Paint on 2-3 coats. Before the shoe dries sprinkle some red glitter over the shoe to give it a more glittery effect.
-
Step 5Let the shoe air dry for 4 hours. After that you're good to go! Good luck and Thank you for reading!
