Welcome to the shoemorf
treasure page.
What can
you do with a shoe?
LOTS!
|
Start with some
cheap, white canvas shoes. Be sure to wash them first to remove any sizing
chemicals that might repel dye or paint. Then let your mind go creative.
Try all kinds of things to express yourself. |
 |
If
you wrap them in rubber bands before you dye them, you can get some cool
effects. |
 |
Here,
only the tips were dipped in the dye bath. |
|
 |
Here,
the whole shoe was dyed. |
 |
The
back of the shoes were painted with dye, for more control. A nice diagonal
stripe of white was left. |
 |
Notice
the tips of the shoe tongues were also painted with orange dye. |
 |
The
laces on all the shoes were decorated with fabric paint. This kind of paint
is available in any craft department. |
|
|
 |
The
rubber band around the soles was also decorated with the fabric paint. |
 |
A permanent
marker was used to decorate with all kinds of math cheats.
Every formula
we could think of was included. Anyone wearing these shoes has a walking
math "cheat sheet" on their feet.

Here
the rubber band around the sole was carefully decorated with fabric paint. |
 |
Funky looking
finished shoes.
