DIY Galaxy Shoes

DIY Galaxy Print Shoes


Materials:
Plain shoes/old shoes
Acrylic paint (assorted colours)
Paint brushes
Masking Tape
Water
Sponge
Toothpicks
Glitter
Glue
Scotchguard / water-proofer


Steps:
Gather materials



NOTE: tape the base of the shoe with masking tape if possible, you can use black paint at a later stage if the tape wont stick

Paint in sections, using a 'dab' action, or sponge to spread
Begin with base colour (blue) then add purple and white to finish
Be as messy as you want :)


Add stars using a thin paint brush or toothpick
Add smaller stars (dots) with toothpick, scattered around darker areas of the shoe
'Splatter' with watered down paint and a brush or by using a spray bottle
Add glitter with glue
Use a water-proof spray (scotchguard)


Done!


Also revamping my sisters old chucks with this same technique, will post photos when finished!
