If you have a pair of simple white sneakers that you want to transform into something cute and fun, try out this simple hack!

Tools and materials:

Napkins

All you need are these cute $3 napkins and some Mod Podge glue. Let’s get started.

Removing design

1. Remove the design from the napkin

Typically, stylish napkins like this will have multiple layers. The topmost layer should have the design on it.


Pull apart the napkins so you have the thin layer of the design by itself.

Applying glue

2. Apply glue to the shoe

Next, use a paintbrush to apply glue to the shoe where you want the napkin design to go.

Mod Podge

I’m using Mod Podge which has both glue and a sealant.

Placing napkin over shoe

3. Place the napkin on the shoe

Place the napkin design over the shoe and press it down so it sticks to the glue.

Removing excess napkin

4. Remove the excess napkin

Rip off the excess napkin that overflows where the glue isn’t applied.
