Attempting to dye some boots…?

Hi guys,

Bit of a silly one but I’m not a very creative person, but I’m have ordered some glitter boots which I’m looking to dye at home to match an outfit for the Eras tour… specifically the outfit where she wears two different coloured boots. I’m planning to dye one pink and one blue.

I’m just wondering what the best way to go about that would be? Unsure if actual dye would stick to the glitter properly or whether I’d be better of with metallic spray paint if this would do a better job on the glitter.

Overall I’m not expecting an amazing result but just thought it’d be a bit of fun and hopefully add to the outfit a bit (of course it could look terrible but never mind 😂)

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

(Attached photos of the boots I’ve ordered and the ones she wears during the 1989 set). Thanks guys!

dye won’t work
spray paint will, but will stop the glitter being glittery.
your best option is to buy a metallic spray paint so that they are still shiny.
put masking tape over the zips otherwise they will get blocked up with paint and won’t work
