First of all, why do you need to make fake pointe shoes??? Anyway, pointe shoes are all handmade, and the hard bit at the toe is made from lots of layers of glue and canvas (i think its canvas) material to make it hard. SO,, if you are that desperate you could try piling glue and canvas stuff onto the toe of a normal Ballet shoe. also, pointe shoes are made of shiny pink satin on the outside, so you might want to cover it up with that? but i have NO idea what it will come out like i think it will look a bit weird. Try looking up some videos of how they make them to give you a better idea.
If you need them so bad you could try buying the cheapest pair from a shop or something. I am now taking it you are interested in ballet and want to try some out, huh? Well so am i but i am waiting till i get on pointe which hopefully is soon!! <3
Or get an old pair of shoes or ballet shoes fill the ends with carrier bags,socks or tissue then for sopport cover them in tape and for more support put a sock over the top. WARNING: making fake pointe shoes can be dangerous and you could hurt yourself only make them at your own rist not for dancing purpouses

Why do Dancers use pointe shoes?
Dancers use pointe shoes to make them look taller, give the thought that they are on their toes, to give their body a more graceful line.
Which pointe shoes to buy?
I would suggest that you ask your ballet teacher for recommendations. It is important to get properly fitted as the best way to injure yourself is to have bad fitting pointe shoes. As makes go, I would suggest Grishko (2007 I would suggest, if you are a beginner on pointe). Grishko do have a website so look there. When buying pointe shoes, if possible try on Pro-Pads or Ouch Pouchs as they make wearing pointe shoes more comfortable. However, make sure you try your pointe shoes with them in otherwise you may find that they do not fit. Buying a pair of convertible tights helps in a ballet class if you are buying Ouch Pouchs or Pro- Pads but again make sure you try your pointe shoes on with these tights. I would not suggest buying pointe shoes online as you cannot try them on. Sources Personal Experience
How do they make colored pointe shoes?
They usually either dye the satin from the beginning or, in some professional companies, the pointe master or mistress will know how to dye them as ready made pointe shoes. If you use Grishko's, you can order them colored.
