Shoe dyeing

Hi ladies, I usually hang out on the Vegas board since we are getting married there, but we live in Winston-Salem so some things just need to be done out here.

I bought dye-able white satin shoes and have no idea where to take them. I know Winston-Salem is not exactly a booming metropolis and I don't mind driving out to Charlotte or the Triangle.

Is there anyone you would suggest?

    I know they dye shoes at David's Bridal but I'm not sure if you have to purchase the shoes there or not. I know they have one in WS. GL

    Yeah. . David's is about the only place I can really think of. Do you have a shoe-fixer-upper store? I don't know what they're called. . .

    I suck, no help . . sorry

    Good luck!

    DB won't do it because I didn't buy the shoes from them.

    The girl told me to do it in the bathtub. Ugh.

    I guess I'll call FI's favorite shoe repair place. Do women in the south only wear white shoes or what?

    Cobbler.

    Years ago I had shoes dyed from a ShoeShow type store in WS.  But I don't remember which one.  I know that's not really very helpful but what I'm trying to get at is that somewhere like that may be able to do it.
