My crystal shoes - update with FLASH!

Wow, that must have taken you ages! Looks amazing.

They are beautiful!! x

LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!!

Wow they look fab!! What did you use if you dont mind me asking? xx

They look great

I tend to do them in hourly blocks as the glue is strong and my back starts to ache so I don't know how long really!

From the advice of other posters on here, I use flat backed crystals from a well known auction side ? and some E6000 glue. I just use a matchstick with cellotape wrapped around (technical!) to pick up each crystal.

I ❤️ them too!!

They are frickin' amazing!!!!

They look lovely!!! x

They look brilliant, Well done !!!

They are gorgeous! You must have incredible patience!

What fabric are the shoes underneath the sparklies?

P.S They look fab!

It feels like a suede - they are from New Look! I think the glue would stick to anything material wise though

Ta...might give it a go then. Especially as my OH works away 4/5 days per week so I can get stuffs done then

Have a go! Its actually quite relaxing once you get into it, and relatively cheap too!

What size crystals did you use and how many did you order. I'm considering popping into town and buying these shoes, and if I stuff up, I've only lost £15

So far Ive bought 6,000 crystals but I think I'm going to need more! I used 4mm and 3mm as with one size you get more gaps (another hint from another Hitcher!) ... My shoes were 19.99 and I thought the same!! I think my second shoe will be better as I've learnt as I've gone along.
