New Craft Project

I found a book on altering shoes, and it looked like fun. Snapshot_20120805_2
So, having had awesome success glittering up a pair of flats, I bought the book and dug out a favorite, beat up pair of leather clogs or mules or whatever you want to call them, some scrapbook paper in gray-brown prints, the modpodge and some black and dark-brown glitter. IMAG0480

Now, they need piping around the soles to cover the stitching, and for me to put the ends through the buckles when they're completely dry.

  1. These are so cool! Will the mod podge crack when you wear them? I also have a pile of in-progress project stuff in the corner of my kitchen floor, only mine has been there a few weeks, LOL. It has become invisible, at least to me.

    1. Melisa, the modpodge didn't crack on my other shoes I did, or really on this pair, but the paper tore a bit on these. I will use fabric next time, for sure! These should be repairable, though.
