Those are awesome! Does the glitter come off when you touch it? Will it crack off after wearing them all day? Super neat.

1. tape off anywhere on the shoes (leather shoes work best) you do not want glitter
2. sand down shoes to rough up the area where you are painting
3. mix glossy modge podge and glitter powder (found embossing stuff)... mix more glitter than modge podge
4.) paint the shoes... it may take a couple of coats
5.) carefully pull off tape
6.) spray shoes with a protective sealing spray

The glitter barely comes off when you touch it because its mixed with glue.... I plan on spraying them with a protective sealing spray so that should help

as for cracking, it should because the straps are still rather flexible.
