Summer is upon us, and though I am miles from Nantucket there is no good reason why I shouldn’t have a pair of boat shoes right here in Austin, TX.
SUPPLIES
Plain Shoes
Tulip Fabric Paint
Paint Brush
Rick Rack
Fabric Fusion Glue
Clothes Pins
PLAIN SHOES
Snag a cheap pair of shoes to adorn. My pair came from Wal Mart, but Target and Payless are also good options.
RICK YOUR RACK
Using Fabric Fusion Glue trim your shoes in rick rack.
Lucky me my friend Caitlin Topham was here to paint some adorable whales on my shoes using Tulip Soft Fabric Paint! I feel closer to the East Coast already.
What do you think are googly eyes too much? It would just take a couple of squirts of Liquid Fusion Glue.
googlie eyes all the way!!!!
Very nice shoes, great imagination and work. Congratulations
Hi Jennifer!
I've been reading your blog for over a year and I love seeing all of your projects! I was super excited to see these shoes you made! I made some really similar ones a few weeks ago! Check out my Flickr! http://bit.ly/dB6kGn
