Lucky Leprechaun Shoe: St Patrick's Recycled DIY

Repurpose a worn out loafer or bootie into a whimsical lucky leprechaun shoe. Multi surface paints, glue and some sparkle transform "past its prime" footwear into fun St. Patrick's decor giving a nod to the holiday's little cobblers
paint and a vintage image "buckle" transform an old shoe
Shades of green and gold paint add Irish charm. Simple shamrocks and a coat of sparkle add interest.

      @Hb You're right- I'm not %100 sure what you would call it- I bought it at a thrift shop- but I think you could use a variety of shoe styles- I wanted something black with a chunky heel and they had quite a few :)
