..shoe dying work?

my mom is having a hard time finding a pair of shoes she loves to go with her dress. she ordered a pair of white satin pumps that can be dyed. we want to dye them a grayish color.

you have to bring a swatch of the fabric you want it to match to the store that's doing the dyeing of the shoes and they will match it as closely as they can

I'm not sure how much it costs - I don;t think a whole lot (like amybe $10 - $20) and I think Sandys and Craft shoes will dye shoes that weren't bought there (but I'd call first to check)

Its not that expensive, but fyi the dye does rub off on your feet. I had my shoes dyed a few times in the past, one time red, and all night people kept asking me if my feet were bleeding! LOL
