DIY: Crushed Glitter Wedges

I've been lusting after J.Crew's version (See it here) of  the crushed glitter wedge for several weeks now, but was unable to justify spending that much money on a wedge that I would wear sparingly. Thus, a new DIY project was born...

1. Find a pair of leather wedges/sandals/heels that are affordable & comfortable (mine are F21).
2. Additional Supplies: Spray Adhesive, Glitter, & Sealant Spray (I found all these at Michael's).
3. Tape off all surface areas that you don't want to be sprayed with adhesive & covered in glitter.
4. Evenly spray leather surface with Adhesive & then cover in glitter. Let dry for 30-45 minutes.
5. Evenly coat the glitter surface with Sealant spray.  Let dry overnight. Add additional coats if desired.
