DIY glitter shoes

Happy Monday! I am back from my trip and I am planning on posting some pictures and maybe uploading a haul video. Still thinking about that, I've never done a video before! Anyway when I found out I was going to Vegas I decided to transform my old heels into Vegas shoes.
Here is what I used to transform my shoes:
1. Krylon Fluorescent spray paint
2. Tacky Glue 
3. Jumbo Glitter 
all purchased at Walmart
 Step 1:
Spray paint the shoe. I wasn't sure where I wanted to add the glitter so I spray painted the whole shoe.
Step 2:
Mix glue and glitter together. I didn't mix the whole can of glitter, I only mixed half of it.
Step 3:
Apply the glue with a brush wherever you want to add glitter.
Step 4:
Once you have applied a layer of glue and glitter, grab your can of glitter and start dumping the glitter on top of the shoe.
As you can see my shoes were pretty beat up, I was ready to throw them out. 
and here they are so ready for Vegas! 
Hope you guys have a great week!
