how do you get the paint to stay on? or will it become permanent if you let it dry long enough?

Where can you get shoes to paint on? Is there anywhere you can buy shoes specifically made to paint on?

Um, probably not Unless you use fabric paint or something that's waterproof.

Sharpies are permanent and I think they're waterproof. I saw on one Tutorial someone that used sharpies to draw the stuff on once she was happy with the design, but I'd definately use a fixing agent of some kind. Better safe than sorry, ya know??

What kind of paint do you use? Will cheap acrylic craft paint work?

I love this tutorial! <3

Yep, cheap acrylic paint works just fine!

Thank you so much I would love to see how your shoes turn out, if you make a pair!

Awesome! :3

Do you use any sealer D: Or do the paint not bleed when wet?

tehevilbatdog In reply to RainCookie [2008-03-10 03:25:57 +0000 UTC]

No sealer. And the paint doesn't bleed when wet... well, at least not when it's raining/stepping in small puddles. I wouldn't try dunking the whole shoe in water though Just make sure you let the shoe dry completely after you finish painting them.

Thing with a sealer is that I think it might make the fabric too stiff..
