Time to take matters into your own hands!
DIY Expert, Michelle, demonstrates how to paint the shoes you love in order to fit your unique style of beauty.
Before you begin, you’ll need the following items:
- Shoes
- Lumiere Paint
- Angelus Paint
- Acetone or alcohol
- Q-tips or cotton balls
- Paint brushesRubber gloves
- Small cup of water
- Small paint jars for mixing
Step 1: Prep your shoe.
Use alcohol (for real leather) or acetone (for man-made leather.) Allow it to dry and then tape off the portion you will be painting.
Step 2: Cover dark shoes with white Angelus paint.
Step 3: Using a fan brush, paint on the first thin coat. Let each coat of paint dry fully between applications.
Step 4: Remove any unwanted wet paint with a Q-tip and water.
Step 5: After waiting 15-20 minutes, apply another coat of paint.
Step 6: Let the paint dry and then brush on one or two coats of the Lumiere paint for a shiny, metallic finish.
