Inspired by these lovely but expensive glitter flats,
I mustered up the courage to attempt to make my own,
for less than $20.oo.


Materials:
16 oz. bottle of Mod Podge Gloss
4 0z. bottle of glitter, color of your choice
Ballet Flats (I found mine at Target for $9.99)
Sponge Brush



Instructions:
1. Mix glitter with Mod Podge.
Make sure to use LOTS of glitter.


2. Coat the shoe with glitter/Mod Podge mixture.


3. Let dry completely, I waited several hours in between coats.

(They look really funky when wet, but the Mod Podge dries clear.)


4. Repeat until satisfied with coverage.
Mine have 4 layers.


Once they dried completely, I added a gold ribbon around the top.
Original idea from wearenotmartha.com
