Hey guys, I haven't posted in a while as I haven't been bothered to edit my photos again, sorry. I've also decided to branch out the blog and post about the DIY projects I've been doing recently. I've seen a lot of comic book shoes people have made lately on instagram and pintrest and also on tickld and so really wanted to make my own. It is a super easy way to jazz up a pair of shoes and you don't have to use comics you could use any magazine. I do like marvel comics however and decided to make some spiderman shoes. I'll post pics first then explain how to create them although there are some great youtube tutorials if you are going to make these.

To create these I bought some plain black patent high heels from Barratts for £8 in a sale. I also bought the amazing spiderman 475 (34) from ebay. I then cut the comic book up and used PVA glue to stick create the shoes. (The youtube video's suggested to use modge podge but I had a thick pva glue which is sort of the same thing.) I love these shoes and they came out so much better than I imagined.

Hey guys,

Today I've done a very simple design based on the board game monopoly. I know there are many different monopoly variations but this is ased on the classic london one. I chose to only do the property cards as these easily fit on the nail and are very simple. Pictures first than a tutorial.

To start I painted my nails a base colour of Barry M mint green which needed two thick coats. I than painted the tips of my nails matte white and than went over this with the colour. On the thumb is mango, then blood orange, next lemon ice-cream and then spring green and indigo (all Barry M). I then used a black fine liner pen to write the name and the value of the property and to underline the colour. Add a topcoat and the design is finished. 

Hope you enjoy,

Lauren

What variations of monopoly do you own? I don't have the classic but I do have the lord of the rings edition :P
