Start with a fresh new pair of plain light-colored espadrilles as the canvas for a wearable art!

  • Doodle the design on one shoe with a pencil.
  • Mirror the design on the other shoe.
  • Then use a selection of colored permanent markers to color in the design.

The fun part is adding stitches, beads, and sequins to fill in the design. Use a narrow needle and wax your thread for best results. Feel free to use pliers to help pull the needle through the thick canvas. Before you know it, you’ll have a pair of beautiful shoes!

These are absolutely the cutest little shoes I have seen that most likely did not cost a fortune. Love them!
