This summer I was super inspired by no other than the look of pencils and created not only a Pencil Stool, but also PENCIL SHOES!
Below are the step by step instructions on how to create your own!
Step 1: Use a clean pair of white canvas (fabric) shoes, acrylic paints (pink, yellow, metallic, black, and beige), a couple small paint brushes, and a roll of Painter’s Tape.
Step 2: Remove the shoelaces and section off the different parts of the shoes using Painter’s Tape. Then paint the tip of the shoes black for the lead of the pencils.
Step 3: Paint the middle section of the shoes yellow for the body of the pencils.
Step 4: Paint the heel section of the shoes pink for the erasers then let the paint dry completely before removing the tape.
Step 5: Use Painter’s Tape to help create boundaries to paint the metallic section of the shoes.
Step 6: Remove the Painter’s Tape when the paint is completely dried then cut enough from a roll of Tape Measure ribbon for your shoelaces. Click on the link for a comparable ribbon from Amazon.
Then tah-dah!!!!
Share the fun with your friends!
