Coloring Bridal Shoes

Soon to be brides often worry themselves sick for perfect wedding accessories to match their bridal trousseau. Getting bridal shoes in exactly the same shade of white, cream or ivory is not as easy as it sounds. We have an easy solution for you. Just dye the best style of plain, white and simple silk or satin shoes that you are comfortable in, in the desired shade, and decorate them for your wedding day. If you are the bridesmaid or maid of honor, you can lessen the anxiety of your beloved bride by helping her design her own dream bridal shoes. It is very simple and quick to make craft too.

Things You Will Need:
  • Decorative Items such as Beads, Lace, Pearls, Flowers or Charms
  • Fabric Glue
  • Hair Clips
  • Needle and Thread
  • Silk or Satin Shoes
  • Sponge
  • Strong Black Coffee in a Bowl
Method:
  • Brew up strong black coffee and pour it in a bowl.
  • Dip the sponge in the coffee and squeeze it well.
  • Wipe one shoe with the sponge lightly.
  • Let it dry to see the shade that the shoe acquires.
  • Apply as many coats as required to get the exact shade that you want.
  • Repeat the process of dyeing the other shoe.
  • Make sure that colors of both the shoes match.
  • Keep in mind that once the shoes dry, the color will be lighter.
  • Take time to get the exact shade.
  • Beautify the shoes with embellishments such as beads, pearls and glowers around toe and heel and stick them in place using fabric glue.
  • Use hair clips to hold decorations in their right place for some time until the glue dries.
  • You may also stitch some of the embellishments such as beads and pearls using needle and thread to attach them more securely.
