DIY gold tipped flats

Have you seen this trend lately?  I, usually, am weary of trends, but since I love flats, this one is definitely right up my alley.  As a busy stay at home mom, I don't have time and money to shop for every whim out there, so I decided to convert a new pair of shoes into some trendy classic new flats.

I don't remember where I saw this DIY, it was long ago.  However, I'll go on a limb here and say that I first may have spotted this on Say Yes to Hoboken.  It was simple and it cost me nothing, because I didn't have to buy anything (my mom got me the shoes for Christmas).  You can do this with any pair of shoes, really.  Here's the step by step in pictures.
