Paper, Cloth, Clitter, andSHINE

Who said custom has to be painted on? In this chapter we’ll get out the glue, break open our secret stash of rhinestones and glitter, prowl the aisles of fabric stores for animal prints, and call in a few favorite superheroes—BAM!—to help inspire unique surface texture and collage ideas. I’ll tell you everything you need to know about adhesives, cutting tools, and finishes for customizing your kicks with texture, imagery, and a little bit of shine!
