1. Make the Heel
Take a little bit of gum glue and fold it into a short, wind like shape. Make sure it's level on the base and somewhat decreased on the top. This is your high heel: It ought to be as tall as you need your shoe to be.
It's a smart thought to pile up your cupcake cups to the tallness you need your heel to hit, and look at the heel you simply made so you're certain it's the correct size.
Give the heels a chance to dry medium-term (while your shoe is drying). In the event that conceivable, let them dry for in any event 24 hours.
Note: There are numerous approaches to dry your heels. You can turn them over a bowl or a heap of cupcake cups set at the correct stature. On the off chance that you have an alternate technique, pull out all the stops.
2. Make the Shoe
To begin with, make the sole. You need to reveal the sole somewhat thicker than you'd ordinarily take off gum glue — at any rate ¼-inch thick.
Next, place the format onto the gum glue, and cut around it utilizing a sharp blade or X-acto blade. When you've removed the sole shape, lift it up and mellow the outside edge to try and out any sharp cuts.
Presently, lay the sole of the shoe down, lifting up the heel part so it lays over the heating cups, or whichever structure you decided for the stature.
3. Make the Liner
Reveal the gum glue a lot more slender to make the liner. At that point cut it out after indistinguishable strides from above.
From that point forward, utilize a sewing instrument to make checks around the outside of the liner, with the goal that it would appear that it's sewed to the sole of the shoe.
Lay the liner over the sole, leaving an equivalent space around the impact point of the shoe.
4. Make the Top
Reveal your gum glue so it's about as thick as the liner. Once more, cut around the layout and relax the edges.
At that point, utilizing lemon separate or your preferred technique for sticking gum glue together, brush the outside edge of the toe of the shoe. This will prepare it to apply to the highest point of the shoe.
Delicately apply the highest point of the shoe to the sole, by coordinating up the top edges of the two pieces.
At this point, the gum glue might be solid enough to remain solitary and not require inside help. In the event that your shoe still needs support, you can stuff cling wrap or cotton inside to enable it to hold its shape while drying.
Give the shoe a chance to dry medium-term, or ideally for 24 hours, before joining the heel.
To connect the heel, it's ideal to utilize imperial icing or make a gum-glue stick, which you can do by including a tad of gum glue to a limited quantity of water and giving it a chance to break up. It'll transform into a sticky wreckage — ideal for brushing onto the base of the sole and connecting the heel.
5. Enrich!
When your shoe is dry, it's an ideal opportunity to make it lovely. You can include a straightforward bow, or let your creative mind run wild. You might be propelled to figure out how to make sugar blooms or a gum-glue bow to design your shoe.
When you have the hang of making the shoes, don't be astounded in the event that you can't stop — and end up making gum glue totes and dresses to go with them!
