HOW DOES I CATEGORY SHOE PAINTINGS

2 year old shoes, fresh paint.
as you can see, they were quite...well loved beforehand.

I'm thinking about painting customs for people (some are already showing a lot of interest.) But it may be a good idea to get some new shoes to paint samples on before trying to market it, I guess.
They'd cost anywhere from $80-125, probably, depending on the design. (That price also includes the price of the shoe, if someone were to GIVE me their old shoes, I would take a good 40-50 bucks off of that.)

The paint is water resistant and flexible, so they feel almost the same as before. I really want to know if there's some kind of sealant product that will protect painted fabric from peeling or something, though, so if anyone knows of something like that, don't hesitate to say so.

Gold, red and white acrylic paint and sharpie on old Vans.

That's a really neat idea! *___* I love the design and vibrant colours~

What paint did you use by chance? Acrylics?

OH MAN thats so cool. <3
Funny I just colored my own shoes this weekend. xD but it was more of just a test run so I just used various markers, colored pencils, and highlighters.

Its so much fun walking around in them though. Ive got like 7 people asking me to paint there shoes today but I only asked for 20 bucks and they have to get their own pair of shoes. |D'
