- Obviously, it's important to sort of have a slight idea of what you what your shoes to look like, but I also winged it. Use a pencil to sketch the design first before making it permanent with sharpie or paint marker.
- Find a quote that you like to put across the front if you so desire.
"Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world." - Marilyn Monroe.
3. Write it across the toe part IN PENCIL, and then go over it in a sharpie and cover the rest of your design in sharpie as well.4. REMOVE SHOELACES, unless you want them painted too.5. Get your paint set up, if using the spray paint kit, fill with the lightest color first if you're overlaying, otherwise just do whatever color order you'd like.6. Using duct tape or painters tape, tape off areas you DON'T want to get color on.7. Begin painting your sneakers.8. Leave to dry for one hour. (One coat should suffice.)9.

Put your shoelaces back in and rock your new kicks!--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
