I love shopping in charity shops. I got a load of lovely fabric for £1.50, a cute retro Snoopy mug for £1 and some barely worn faux-Converse for £3, which are better than real Converse anyway because they are made by Clarks and have lots of arch support.
Well not really, but they look good enough to eat. Sort of. These shoes are not available in the shops. Because I painted them myself! Yeah, I am ridiculous excited about them.
Painting them was a surprisingly labour intensive process, you have to water the acrylics right down and slowly build up layers of it. It took me nearly 2 hours a shoe. I've also varnished the cakes so hopefully they won't crack. If you are interested in painting your own shoes let me know and I’ll post a tutorial, and if you’re interested in me painting them for you then send me a message, I do take commissions.
