DIY Two-Tone Glitter Heels

DIY Inspiration: Miu Miu Two-Tone Glitter Heels

I bought a cheap pair of glittery heels to wear to a New Year’s Eve
party when I was in high school.  I don’t think I’ve worn them since
then.  They have a faux stacked heel, which doesn’t seem to
coordinate with the glitter.  But, well, they’re sparkly,
so I just couldn’t bring myself to get rid of them. 



I’ve finally decided to update them by painting the heel.  First, I sanded
the heel to rough up its outer coating so that the paint would stick.



Then I grabbed a paintbrush and acrylic black and metallic gold paint and went to work.




Now my ten dollar heels look like a million bucks!
