Step-by-step tutorial

  • Step 1

    Gather all of your supplies and lay out newspaper to protect your workspace. (I have my daughter wear old t-shirts while using fabric paints--just in case!)

  • Step 2

    Trace two shoe shapes onto cardboard, then insert the cardboard into the socks.

  • Step 3

    Now you can let the kids get started on painting the bottom of the socks. After my daughter finished her designs, we let the socks dry overnight.

  • Final result!

    Once the socks are dry, they are ready to be worn or wrapped up for a gift. My daughter made these for her cousins for Christmas, but once they were finished she had to keep a pair for herself. They did come out pretty cute, I may need a pair for myself!
