Craft divert

Hi again! 
   So I'm going to partially divert off of the usual topics of the blog today for more craft based post. 
  As some of you may know we have prom coming up (and I'm so stereotypically excited) since my dress is big and floor length I wasn't really looking forward to spending a full night wearing uncomfortably high high heels when you wouldn't really notice them (plus seeing as how 5 ft 9 inches tall they are totally unneeded) so I decided to get a pair of black converses customised in diamontes for the night time and wear heels for photos. Not wanting to spend too much money on them I decided to re-vamp some old heels and with the help of my lovely mother I've finished up with the above photo^. Taking into account they started off as plain beige shoes I'm pretty proud of how they turned out! 
   Incase anyone was wondering how we did them all we used were; 
- old unused shoes
- mod podge gloss (bought from hobby craft, also available online) 
- black nail glitter (yes nail, extra fine works best) 
- and finally, some clear rhinestones bought from ebay 
 
It's really simple and there's quite a few tutorials online you should try! 
Well that's about all, I'd love to know what you think about them:)
