DIY Bright Yellow Cap Toe Heels
Neon colors are the go-to trend of the season. If you’re looking to buy a new pair of shoes, hold tight as we teach you how to revamp an old pair with this DIY Cap Toe Heels tutorial from A Pair and a Spare.
What You’ll Need
- a pair of rounded or pointed toe pumps (the ones in this tutorial are Karr Black Tokyo Pumps by Tony Bianco)
- masking tape
- a paintbrush
- white and neon yellow acrylic paints
Step 1
First, you’ll want to tape your shoes. Use the masking tape to demarcate the cap toe.
Tip: Make sure to press hard on the edges of the masking tape to get a clean, nice paint on your cap toe.
Step 2
Apply white paint as the base and let it dry for a few hours.
Step 3
Now take your yellow paint and do a couple of coats. Don’t overdo this step to avoid cracking when you take off the masking tape.
Step 4
Don’t wait until the paint is completely dry. Remove the tape while the paint is still slightly moist, then put aside to dry overnight.
Voila!
You’ve just made a chic and fab pair of cap toe heels!
The most challenging part is making sure you do a good job taping, but otherwise, this DIY project is super easy and instantly gratifying!
