Steps

  • Step 1

    In a plastic cup, mix paints to create your perfect shade. To create this teal color we combined our light blue paint, our yellow paint, and added a small amount of white paint until the color was just right!

  • Step 2

    Use a paintbrush to paint the canvas area of the shoes. When completely covered, set aside and allow to dry completely. For any drips or smudges, use a damp cotton swab to clean around the edges.

  • Step 3

    When completely dry, use a black Crayola Fabric Marker to outline the shape of the signature Crayola serpentine on the front of the shoes.

  • Step 4

    Fill in the area around the serpentine with black acrylic paint and allow to dry completely.

  • Step 5

    Add an accent by using Crayola Fabric Markers to write your name or the color name on the sides of the shoes.
