TARDIS Converse

Today I was very artsy, drew, painted and painted shoes. Will post more traditional artsy stuff manana! In addition to tomorrow's drawings. But here's a little dose of Dr. Who for ya!

In case you're not familiar with a Tardis...

 Materials: Blue converse, Sharpie fabric marker, assorted fabric paints or acrylic paint with fabric paint medium mixed in. (fabric paint is essentially acrylic paint with a special medium added to it. If you already have acrylic paint, just buy the medium!)

Step 1: get blue converse

Make a black line all the way around the top of the shoe...

Use tape to mask off edges of windows

Paint windows

Hard to tell but I used a dark blue to outline the bottom
& one side of each window. Had to do this because I didn't
push hard enough down on the tape when I used it and the
white paint bled under the tape.  

Carefully paint in white the words on top of the black.

Don't forget to concentrate, really hard!

Add some grafitti & Voila you're done!

Don't forget to heat set the paint with an iron. I don't recommend ironing directly on. Paint might stick to the iron. 

Friend says I should put the white sign from the front of the Tardis on the tongue of the shoe. What do ya think?
