XKat Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) I'm thinking about decorating my dead first pair of pointe shoes and putting them on display . The problem is i'm not exactly the most talented at working with artsy things . i was thinking about doing something like this: http://www.shoeblog.com/wp-content/uploads.../1228071709.jpg or this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P-6zPcC8cKY/SbiT...20/000_0056.JPG Any other ideas? Oh, and does anyone know what type of dye works best? thanks. x Edited July 21, 2009 by XKat Link to comment
Clara 76 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Well, if you wish to keep the satin finish, you'll have to get a satin dye from a wedding store. If not, then any craft paint should do! I have used acrylics and glued rinestones on with Goop!! Have fun!!!!! Link to comment
L' Allegro Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Something that I've done is pencil on a design and then fill it in with fabric markers. I've done music notes, flowers, butterflies, and fish... my next plan is to do polka dots... and (If you're daring) you can dance in them, too...! Link to comment
