I must be nuts!

So I decided to decorate my shoes for the wedding, I bought a plain pair of heels that I love and did my homework and started buying packs of swarovski jewels to glue on them to 'bejewel' them. I guess my own knock off louboutins LOL well the pack of jewels came in the mail today and WOW! The 300 piece pack I ordered is only 1 tablespoon worth of jewels LOL

this is going to take forever!!!! (thank god I have so much time) but now I'm just thinking 'What did I get myself into!' but on the same note I really wanna do it!

oooo boy! If you start reading really weird posts from me that sound totally crazy and just random words that prob means I was gluing all night long and am prob a high off glue LOL

Re: I must be nuts!

I was thinking of doing that too after I saw some other pics of girls doing it. I'm going to wait to dye my shoes first. Can't wait to see how your shoes come out. Good luck!

Re: I must be nuts!

Thankfully I have ALOT of time to go, cause I have a feeling this is gonna take a while LOL but I'm determined to do it now :)

especially since now so many people want to see the finished piece

Re: I must be nuts!

Good Luck!

I am not a patient person, so I know if I attempted to do this, FH would hear lots of swearing and a shoe being thrown against the wall at 3am!
