DIY Glitter Shoes (that don't have 6 inch heels!)

Here are 3 pairs of old gig shoes that have been beat to death. I have given them new life with GLITTER!!
I found it necessary to make my own due to the fact that every sparkly shoe in the stores right now is rediculously high and impossible to dance and sing in for 3 hours.
I am still perfecting my method and as soon as I get it just right with stage tested heels I will post a "how to" video.











DIY Swarovski Crystal Covered Wireless Mic

Here is my 2nd mic I covered and she's a beauty!
I used ss12 flat back Swarovski Crystals in Crystal AB
It took about 1200 crystals to cover this Wireless Sennheiser.
My crystal's were from www.firemountaingems.com
This was the cheapest I could find Swarovski crystals without a resale liscense.
I have included a few pictures of the only supplies necessary to complete this:
Gem-Tac, A Rhinestone stick, and a paper plate to hold the stones.
Also a damp paper towel is nice to wipe the excess glue off the stick.

Here is a link to a video that show how truly sparkly it is!








DYI Swarovski Crystal Covered Microphones

I covered This SM58 with ss20 flat back Swarovski Crystals in crystal AB and Rose. It turned out beautiful but I feel the stones are a little large.
I purchased my crystals at: www.firemountaingems.com
This was my first and I love it. :)
