I need help to bling up some sandals please. My DD has now moved into women’s sizes instead of older children’s sizes, and she’s rather unimpressed that shoes don’t come in pink or glittery colours for adults. I’ve bought these shoes for her and told her that we’d bling them up for her. I’m not sure how to except to wander the aisles of Spotlight desperately trying to find something. Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can add to them easily and cheaply to make them a bit sparkly? I’m at basic beginner level with craft ability. They’re fake leather and the little circle parts are some type of metal. Thanks! https://www.spendless.com.au/nation-natural-69.html#size-6

Have you looked on youtube for sandal makeovers? There might be a suitable glitter spray out there.

You have me going down the rabbit hole of DYI shoe bling. You can get sheets of rhinestones. https://www.spotlightstores.com/craft-hobbies/paper-craft/embellishment-stickers/stickers/crafters-choice-rhinestone-sheet/BP80470815

@IcyPole I feel your pain - both my DDs have now grown out of the kids section at 9 and 11 and were both devastated to not have the choice of the sparkles and bling. It seems to happen really suddenly. Eldest is no longer bothered and prefers to buy boys thongs atm but I really feel for the youngest - adult choices are way more boring. I’m not remotely crafty but those videos ^ look promising.

I’ve used glitter fabric paint on shoes before and they came up really well. Like this one: https://www.spotlightstores.com/craft-hobbies/art-supplies/paint-painting-supplies/speciality-paints/tulip-glitter-dimensional-fabric-paint-6-pack/BP80312420

Lol, I’d come across some of the full on glitter shoe tutorials using modge podge and all sorts of things. I think they’re a bit beyond my crafting ability! These strips of rhinestones might work well. They came up as suggested when I clicked on the link from OnFire. Pretty sure we don’t have a hot glue gun. I’m guessing I’ll need some craft glue to make them stick on properly for a child who loves to kick her feet and shoes on things. Spotlight trip coming up. DH won’t be happy. 😆

Blinging up some sandals - help please!
