Based on "Crayon" Dunlop Volleys by tama_sempai
I was inspired by the "crayon" dunlop volleys. So i made these :D I did mine in a puzzle pattern which took a little while to get to look right and i used some fabric markers i found at the $2 shop. I'm reeeeally happy with them. Although the colour did run in some spots (usually when i did the colour too heavy or coloured too close to the outline of eash puzzle piece.) I got used to how the markers worked in the end and i just ironed them which the markers paket says will permanently fix the colour to the shoe... only time will tell on that!! Let me know what you think :)

I got these shoes at K-mart for $8 and the markers for $7 (yeah at a $2 shop haha!!)

Ellie, This is a GRAND idea for keeping those old shoes that fit so well, but don't LOOK so well!!! I am really happy about this idea. Thank you!!
Also, to keep your paint from running, I took waxed paper and put it over the painted side when I ironed them. This seemed to keep the paint in place better. I washed them, then ironed them again without the paper, and they are holding up very well!! Just a hint for you. xo
