A Step-by-Step Guide to Making Your Footwear Fabulous

One size does not fit all. For diva-licious footwear as unique as you, step into Altered Shoes and be your own designer! Whether you're working with new shoes or a pair you've worn-in just right, this book shows you how to add your own personal stamp. (Or rhinestones, or ribbons, or gilding?)

Dig those castaways out of your closet - those Plain Janes, those old favorites with scuffed-up soles, and those pricey bridesmaid shoes that saw their day and have been in the box ever since. Add sparkle to your stilettos, revive your favorite flats and personalize your pumps. Use the same techniques to turn new, off-the-rack bargains, into out-of-this-world creations, the kind of shoes that don't just complement your outfit, but punctuate it!
