DIY MIU MIU SNEAKERS

2011/09/21

















You’ll need:

  • a pair of white canvas Vans
  • 8 ounces of Mod Podge
  • 1.5 ounces of coarse gold glitter
  • 1 small and 1 medium flat brush
  • assorted rhinestones in settings
  • heavy duty adhesive
  • small plastic tray
  • tape


  1. Start by taping the edges of the shoes, covering the rubber soles. Cover both toes with tape as this is where the rhinestones will be glued on later. Add one part course glitter to two parts Mod Podge into a small plastic cup or tray
  2. Stir the mixture thoroughly with a paintbrush. The consistency should be rather thick but not pasty. Apply a layer of the glitter mixture to the shoe. Allow to dry for 10-15 minutes and add a second and third layer until hardly any white space is showing. Use an exacto knife or the edge of your fingernail to scrape off any glitter that might have dried onto the grommets or soles.
  3. Remove the tape. Using adhesive, glue the rhinestones on the toe in any pattern.
  4. port your new Miu Miu inspired glittery sneakers with or without laces!

  8. Thanks for stopping by honey. The boots are my fav too, I could wear them with anything. And they look great with woollen stockings too :)

    Jeez, these are great ! I absolutely love this DIY. I've promised to be without shopping fot 2 months (one week down, 7½ to go). But in case I get bored with my old shoes, I'll definitely "pimp my shoes" with this DIY. I'm gonna go with a more coppery look, since I've already got golden vans :D

    All that energy is boxed in, amplified by the space. The nature of Reddit's platform makes it possible -- through great and creative effort, it appears -- to give users a gift of the unexpected, rather than deriving humor from humiliation.
