Materials Needed:
Instructions:
From Deen - "My daughter had a pair of white patent leather shoes that she ruined with a huge scuff after just 1 wear.
I almost threw them away, but then I thought of this idea:
Plug in the hot glue gun. After it heats up, glue sequins onto the shoes. Work in small areas, as the hot glue cools quickly. Put sequins close together.
Alternately, one could use spray glue and glitter. This method is a lot quicker, but be forewarned you may find glitter in your carpet as your child plays with them."
- Age Guideline: 8 Years and Up
