DIY: Colour block sandals

Well, this is my first DIY that I am about to post. I hope you guys like it. Do comment.
We all have those old boring sandals which we either dont like or are worn out. Here is a simple way of converting those dull pieces into something lively and fun.

P.S. please excuse me for the bad camera quality.

You will need :
- Old pair of sandals
-White and black acrylic colour paint
-Any three colours of acrylic paint that you want to paint on the sandals
-Brushes
-Cello tape
-A scale
-A black pen

-Start with scrubing off the extra leather from the sandals.


                                                         -And then they will look like this.


-With the help of a scale, draw the lines in this pattern.



-Do the same for other side and then on the other pair.

- Seal the corners of the strap with some cellotape so that you dont paint the sides of the sandals.


-Now paint both the straps white.


- Once the paint dries, get ready with the other colours and start painting each block with different colours to create an interesting pattern.




-Once this is done, paint the outlines with black colour.

                                   
                                                -And voila! your new pair of sandals are ready :)
