DIY Galaxy Converse


As promised, here is the finished product of my sisters converse! I really want to keep them, they turned out much better than the earlier version as the shoe is canvas and gives off a nicer finish. Might have to invest in doing some of these for myself! After a lot of thought I decided on the white laces.

Steps





Finished



 Note: You might be able to tell that the rubber sole came out much cleaner, whiter and looking almost brand new! How I did this? Toothpaste and an old brush or scrubber. WIN

Want - Floral Fairylights


Just a quick little post;

My friend and I bought some cheap fairy lights for new years decorations, and now they are sitting at home in my wardrobe. I tried to think of some cool things I could do with them to decorate my room, how amazing are these floral lights?!
