Upcycle your tennis shoes into a Summer Fashion Statement

[bloodbought]

If you make these, be prepared to have women stopping you and asking you where you got them! 



I buy most of my "craft" tennis shoes on sale or clearance (slip ons and lace-ups) at stores like Target, Kohl's, Payless or Walmart where you can find good quality brands with comfort in mind. Fabric paint sales are year round at Hobby Lobby, Michae'ls & JoAnn's Fabric where I also find waterproofing spray.

Below are some "How to" videos. These are fashion forward & darn cute for any girl of any age. Hope this post will inspire at least a few to try something new & wear something fun - Enjoy!

I love the starry nights design!  I'm thinking it might be best to follow instructions for the first pair you make in order to get a feel for doing it, then come up with your own designs.  This could be fun!

Bumping for baydoll.  My mistake - it was bloodbought, not Shoshanna.  These are a lot of fun!
