revamped old boots!

[atomicgypsy.livejournal.com]

i had these old beat up plain black boots.. and i felt like updating them..


1. removed "claws" that i had painted on the toes with nailpolish a billion years ago.
2. spraypainted with metallic blue
3. spraypainted with neon pink
4. worried that cars passing by would think i was graffitti-ing the curb...
5. IDEA! to paint graffitti on boots.. decide on using one of Fafi's girls.
6. painted details with acrylic paint, sealed, then accented with glitter nailpolish
7. put them on and danced around the room
:)
the art on them is by the french artist Fafi.

i painted over the shoelace, since they zip up the sides anyway, so the picture would be more continuous.


boots in action!

so far, there is only one girl.. but i might do a different one on the other boot.. i'm not sure..i might like them more like this.
