Instructions

Choose your colors of tissue paper. Tear off the straight edges. Tear the paper into irregular 1" pieces. Beginning at the toe along the sole, brush on the decoupage solution. Lay tissue pieces selecting pieces that fit along the curve of the sole. Overlapping edges to create interesting color combinations. Brush on a top coat of outdoor decoupage solution. Cover the sneakers completely. Let dry thoroughly. Multiple coats will give you better protection.

 

String beads on the laces to decorate.
