SOOOOOOOOO excited over these heels! I saw this pin on pinterest a few months ago and fell in love. Come on its shoes, crystals and Miu Mui's? What girl would not love those things? (Mainly why would a girl with over 60 pairs of shoes not be interested :p) But unlike the girl who originally blogged about this amazing idea, I did not want to invest in $70 shoes with the possibility that I would mess up. So I've been waiting patiently for a cheaper alternative to pop up on Go Jane.
I did however, fork over the $40 for the crystals because if all else fails...it would be put to great use for another project. Fast forward a bit, I spent the better half of Saturday and several wet towels to remove the glue from my fingers placing these gems on. It was all worth the effort, I must say! Super easy and very pretty and unique to your own personality. <3
SUPPLIES:
Heels with velvet or fabric next to the heel.These are the ones I got, but these are nice as well.
60-80 pieces of Swarovski Rhinestones of various sizes up to 15mm
Bottle of Liquid Stitch
Pair of Tweezers
Ton of wet paper towels
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Make sure your shoes are clean of lint (I guess its not necessary, just my OCD)
3) Instead, place droplets of glue behind the rhinestones and wait for a few minutes until it starts to harden. Do 4 at a time, so the glue still has its tackiness.
4) Use the tweezers to place the crystals behind the heel. I did a design where the crystals got smaller as I got closer to the heel.
5) Wait at least 24 hours before struting your heels. ( Its a lot harder than it seems, but you can do it!)
Until next week! <3
(Yes, there are two extra round stones on the right shoe, Im waiting for the backorder of the rest :/)
