fashion friday- tribal painted sandals


It's no secret that I love to paint shoes and lately I've had a hankering for some black and white tribal print sandals so I got busy making my own!

Just about any type of shoe can be painted. I started with a pair of faux suede sandals so I used Tulip Fabric Paint which works great on any fabric.

I painted directly over the straps- first a layer of black paint. 

Once the black paint was dry I used white to paint my designs.

  4. Love them. My daughter paints her sandals all the time. She needs suede insoles and they are hard to find, when she does, out comes the paint! They tend to be stylish longer when they have their own unique flare!
