I posted on here some time last year about having a go at my own crystal shoes to see how hard it was!
I bought a pair of nude shoes on sale in new look, bought some silver crystals and specialist glue and had a bash. They Took me over 22hrs to complete them but ive had soo many compliments on them. (unfortually theyre slightly to big or id deff be keeping them!)
Since then ive been on a crystallizing mission!! Ive done several pairs of shoes for friends & Family and ive also started doing 3D phone cases using crystals and gems which have gone down a storm.
I Just wanted some honest feedback on what all you ladies all think of my shoes & cases? :).
PHOTOS ALL IN MY ALBUM :)

Jodie B - I could prob crystallize anything lol Ive done the bottom of some wine glasses so a bag should be easy hah.
SamanthaH99- I use Gem tac and it seems to be indestructible stuff, i acctidentlv placed a wrong coloured crystal on one of my shoes but didnt notice till after it had dried and i can NOT get it off no matter how hard i pick at it lol

CommentAuthorxbeckix88
Awwww thankyou soo much :). I am trying, ive had a fair few messages but then as soon as i send them prices i never hear back :(. My prices are cheaper than other companies ive found (i had a nose at loads of other crystal shoe buisnesses lol) but seems people think i should be doing them for a tenner haha.
CommentAuthor
people want something for nothing dont they! maybe you could see if you can get on to a shoe wholesalers and get the shoes factory price so you dont have to charge as much, only for your time? Id defo buy some off you xx

CommentAuthorxbeckix88
YES! its slightly annoying haha! im only really charging for my time as ive made it like people give me their shoes and i apply the crystals how they want ie- all over, heel, platform etc. Makes prices cheaper. :)
