....make your heels pop with metallic paper
Sylvia Gunde
With
decorative heels popping in fashion magazines all around the world,
shoe designers are taking the saying "I hate to see you go, but I love
to see you walk away" to heart this fall. But you don't have to spend a
fortune — or buy a new pair of shoes — to get in on the trend. This
quick-and-easy DIY project is a great way to make your own textured gold
heels with your favorite chunky pumps from last season.

Materials:
- Heels
- Metallic paper
- Mod Podge glue*
- Brush
*Note: Depending on the material of your shoe, you might need to use a stronger glue (i.e. tacky glue).

Use your scissors to cut the paper into a smaller, more manageable size. Then crinkle the paper to create the textured effect.

Clean
the heel of your shoe well. Prepare your shoe for the paper by applying
a liberal amount of Mod Podge or other glue to the heel.

Tightly
wrap the metallic paper around your shoe's heel, and use your scissors
to trim away excess paper around the edges. Then apply a top coat of Mod
Podge as your sealant to finish it off.

Voila! Now pair your new creation with your favorite pair of printed pants.
