I mixed up a few dye colors to create one perfect color canvas for the Crystal AB that I'll be using to strass these with for Lauren's wedding. They were a dark camel brown, which I transformed into a silvery purple shade, which will reflect nicely off of crystal AB. I wish I could start strassing now, since my time is limited, and Joe and Lydia are sleeping...BUT....I need to let them dry overnight, to be safe. I cannot wait to have these finished already, and I haven't even started.
As you can see, I had them resoled at Michael's shoe repair in Brooklyn. I definitely needed that for a 10 hour day walking around, and drinking at a wedding. No falling on my face for THIS Maid of Honor...lol (hopefully). The color is a bit streaky, but you won't even be able to tell once they're strassed. That's the beauty of strassing...you don't have to be a perfectionist in terms of dying, because your stone placement is what the world is going to see, not the dye job.
