Description
I found a pair of converse at the Good Will.
What are they called? Thrift shops I think.
Anyhow. I was at one. I found BRIGHT PINK.
like NEON
Converse. And well.... I bought them. About 6 dollars.
I didnt like the colour. I bleached them out completely.
Then drew on them in Bic Mark It pens (sharpies)
The theme is Earth, Wind, Water, Fire.
Only two are done: Fire; flaming fruit bombs.
Water- Whater dragon, capsizing a boat and ocotpus
The backs say "orly?" and "yarly!" the laces are 'Fire-Wind' and 'Earth-Water'

I bought a pair of white victorias this summer to customize them, but I haven't got specialized clothes paint for them
I'm scared that if I use acrylics or something they'll fade if I ever wash them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ahh, just use a sharpie or other kind of permanent marker. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think we have no sharpies here
And it's not the lines I'm worried about, it's the colors
I'm guessing copics would fade if I ever wash them, right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ZOMF WHUT NO SHARPIES
And I dont know.
I'm not sure how copics react to fabric.
I only use them on paper.

Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth.
