I know I shouldn't have delayed this post so long, but I was so busy that it took me longer to get them done that I had planned.
My inspiration came from these shoes here, Kyozokicks. About 6 months ago they made their way across my Pinterest and across Geekcrafts.com. It wasn't long after that I decided to do a Minecraft party and had the idea to do my own pair. I followed this tutorial here, except I used a more puffy type paint. Little Bro helped me by doing all the gridding, I did the painting.
They didn't come out nearly as perfect, but I still think they are radical. J loves them. He wore them today.
Supplies:
-Shoes
-Fabric paints in 3 shades of green, and 1 shade of gray/silver, and black
-Popsicle stick
-Pencil
-Can of shoe waterproofer
This was my first time doing anything with shoes, and I am happy with the results. It wasn't until later that we had a cool surprise when going to bed. I was glad I could capture a good picture of them later.
Everyone in the house agreed this made the shoes a million times cooler. If we were ravers we would be so hip happinen'. Or something. that made me think of this.
Hope you enjoyed!

ReplyDeleteNot sure if you noticed, but I did link this tutorial in the post above. Sadly, it doesn't seem like this link works anymore.
