DIY: Strappy sandals Revamped

I'm a very "D-I-Y" type of person. I love personalizing stuffs and possibly make everything up on my own. If i can do something up without spending much, the better. It's fun plus it's cheap. It's also a rewarding experience once you see the results of your own project.


Here's one of my DIY Project. A revamping of my old boring unused strappy sandals.


        THINGS YOU WILL NEED: =)
paint brush & poster paint or any permanent paint of your choice
(i chose metallic gold color)
newspaper
                                 AND
an unused boring sandal.. =)



        WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:
    
                      1. Wrap the sandals in the newspaper to prevent accidental splashing of paint in the body of the sandal. But if you also want to recolor the whole sandals, much better..
                    
                     2. After wrapping, start painting the straps of the sandals as it's base coating then redo the painting afterwards depending on how much darker or lighter you wanted your sandals to look like.
        

                 3. Do the same with the other pair of your sandals and let it dry for atleast a day before using it... and VOILA!

                                               YOUR REVAMPED SANDALS!..
                      **You can also add additional decorations if you want to like beads or ribbons etc. whatever suits your taste. Just let your imagination do it's magic!.. ;)


 See, It's Really quick and easy!.. Enjoy having your own DIY makeovers!.. =)


love,
