Kitty Pirate Maryjanes & Grape Soda Earrings

[vala-amaris.livejournal.com]

I bought a pair of cheapo maryjanes to paint.  I freehanded a few kitty pirate skull & crossbones on them.  I might do the entire shoe later, however it took well over 2 hours to do these and about 5 coats to get good coverage.  I used acrylic paint mixed with textile medium because the maryjanes are made of a stiff fabric-like material.  They're a little on the sloppy side but what the heck, it adds character. LOL! I hope you like them!





And part of my contribution for the sampler this month, vintage grape soda earrings.
