These DIY splattered sneaker designs by fashion blog Honestly WTF cleverly instruct fashionistas how to transform their new and old shoes into a stylish pair of custom footwear using technicolor paint. The design takes little to no skill and looks best when done with a random intent.
Customizing your shoes is a great way for consumers to express their personality and add individualized designs to their favorite footwear that no one else will have. The customization begins with several of your favorite acrylic paint colors that are then splattered onto a pair of sneakers using a flicking motion and a dry brush. The effect is very avant-garde depending on how many colors you choose to use. Once the acrylic paint has hardened and turned into plastic, these shoes can be worn out.
