We had the best time making these red saddle shoes. I've been wanting a red pair for years, so this was the perfect opportunity to try it out! Here's what we did…
1. You'll need- A pair of white flats, Martha Stewart All Surface craft paint in red and pink, paint brushes. 2. Mark off the areas of the shoe that you plan to paint with painted Xs. 3. Paint 2-3 coats (dry between each) until the surface is completely covered. 4. Add cute hearts, dots of a pattern of your choosing! Enjoy…
Have a wonderful weekend! xo. elsie + kinsey

I have to make a pair for myself 🙂
And these little hearts- love them.
Do you think an acrylic paint would be good to use?
Love the entire look 😀
Oh wow, super cute! Where did you find this pair of white oxfords?
Awe, those are so cute! Love the little hearts detail.

I was a highschool cheerleader in the 80s and we used to do our shoes this way for cheering except we’d use nail polish.
And on the cold days in Maine we used to wear “genie” pants instead of skirts – although I can’t really see those making a comeback.
Where did you get those shoes, tho, they’re BEAUTIFUL.

These are just perfect, they’d brighten up any outfit! I’d never really thought about customizing my shoes with paint (though we used to all draw on our converse back in school!), you make it look pretty fail-proof though!I especially love the wee stamp details, so sweet!
These are so sweet! I love the idea of re-decorating shoes 🙂

Such a lovely idea, I will be sure to do this.
Those are spectacular. I have always wanted saddle shoes!
I love this but I dont have a pair of shoes like this.
Hi! We got the white shoes from JC Penny. XOXO!

so cute! love all your painted shoes…
will definitely make this one!!! hiihi!
aww so so adorable and so easy too! You too look just darling too!
Ahhh! I wish I had an easier time finding inexpensive shoes at the thrift store, so I wouldn’t feet bad about painting them! I have one pair of oxfords, but they’re very neutral and I hate to make too bold of a statement in my one pair of oxfords! haha!
All these crafts are so cute- I’m making the heart painting later today- my husband and I actually wrote a song together with the lyrics “You’re my best friend..” in the chorus, so when I saw it I was smitten!

The shoes turn out perfect! They are so sweet, so delicate.
These are so cute! Now I just need to find a pair in my size 😛
BTW, the style shoe you’re decorating/wearing is a wing-tip, not a saddle shoe.
Super cute and only a tiny bit corny.
I love the added hearts 🙂
This is such a great idea…

OH. MY. GOSH. These turned out AMAZING! I honestly thought they were store bought but then I realized this was YOUR blog and practically everything you post is DIYs (which I love, don’t get me wrong). The last shot looks as though it should be framed.

Only problem is I’d never be able to find a pair of oxfords. They look great though.
Super cute! You guys make DIY look soooo easy 😉
The hearts are a cute touch! I want to try this with glitter paint, hopefully they’ll be a little less messy than my all-glitter pumps!
I LOVE these! I need some saddle shoes asap
