Craft: Shoe Modification level 1

August 20, 2010 By radmegan 2 Comments

Inspired by Camper shoes, which I love but cannot often afford, I turned to my closet to spice up my own boring footwear.

My "Love Shoes"
These plain, faux leather flats from Target were excitedly embellished with Sharpie marker after getting engaged. Celebration doodle shoes!

Modified Shoes
Fawn-colored (or maybe a wild hare?) cloth flats in need of… something… a little life? A few button eyes, noses and Sharpied lashes later… LIFE! The felt flower pins are detachable.  

Boom! Pow! Action Shoes
Second-hand silver leather pumps. For days when I need to channel my inner pop artist or Superhero. Drawn with Sharpie-marker by yours truly.  If you see me coming in these, look out! I feel my super powers kick in every time I wear them.

    Nope! The Sharpie stays on like a champ. Just let it dry completely before wearing your shoes… and maybe avoid jumping in puddles?
