Let the Hunger Game’s Begin!

03/22/2012 12 Comments

Tonight’s the night! Is anyone else crazy and going to see the midnight showing tonight?  Snacks are bought {shhh, that’s what big purses are for right?}, shirts are made, shoes are made, necklace made…alright I may have gone a bit overboard.  My friend Rhi has been texting us since yesterday with excitement, like it was Christmas…it makes me giggle.  This is my same friend who tattooed a great quote from the book on her entire forearm {it’s awesome}.  I’m wondering if she even slept last night due to her excitement.  
When I had bought my supplies to make my Hunger Games T-shirt I had bought a pair of {tom-like} shoes from Target thinking I would possibly create something with them as well.  I left it until last night because I wasn’t sure what I wanted on them, or if I’d even ever wear them again.  I figured what the heck just do it, I know my friend Rhi painted her Toms for the movie, so I won’t be alone.  I had to free hand paint these so they are a little sloppy.  I’m not sure I’m in love with them, but they’ll do the trick for tonight….I almost wish I had of embroidered them like I was originally going to.  Oh well.
{oh and I forgot to wipe off my white pencil lines from where I sketched the design to begin with before painting in the pictures, so look past that please!  lol}
If you are going tonight to the movie I hope it enjoy it, and have a blast watching!
Here are some other Hunger Games inspired shoes that were hand crafted, all way better than mine!

    How did you write and draw on them? Did you just use a fabric pen? I freaking love this! Way good job!

    @ Jamie – I didn’t have an email to directly tell you but here ya go.
    I first sketched the design on with a white colored pencil, then I free hand painted it with soft fabric paint from Tulip. Thank you! ;D
