Wedding: I think I have the SHOES!
You may remember my major shoe crisis for the wedding. I sent back the orange-ey yellow ones I didn't really like, since they didn't fit well, anyway. So I was quite discouraged until I randomly scrolled through Amazon's formal shoe selection and found...
For only $29.97 and free shipping...
The PERFECT Nina shoes I have always liked best!! The ones that don't come in yellow.
In white!! In my size!
So I ordered them. I want to dye them yellow. I think.
And then... they arrived!
In such a pretty box... with the flannel protective bag and everything...
Yay!! So cute!
So there they are. My perfect $90 shoes. For a great price. Now what?
Have you ever dyed your own satin shoes? What kind of dye should I use? I assume not the powdered RIT stuff, but can I buy a liquid dye at the craft store and will it work out?
I think I may take off a bow and try to dye it first, and if it works, dye both shoes. I may want to replace the bows with something more unique anyway, so if it comes out looking bad it won't be the end of the world.
Help! I am relying on your shoe-dying experience! Thanks so much!! =)
