My affair with the Clorox Bleach Pen continues! You can make it too! It's really fun to experiment with different sneaker fabrics. The black turns brown after the bleach is gone. I used stickers from the office supply store, but you could also use stencils.
Supplies:1 pair of black canvas sneakers (any color but white)
1 package of price stickers (rectangle)
1 package of hole protectors stickers (these give that donut look)
1 bleach pen
plastic gloves
Directions:1. Remove the laces.
2. On the inside of each sneaker, put the price stickers in rows. On the outside of each sneaker, put the hole protectors.
3 Put on the gloves. Open the bleach pen and generously coat the shoes. Let the bleach sit for about 20 minutes.
4. Run the faucet water and rinse the bleach cream off the shoes, rubbing with your fingers to remove the stickers as well. Make sure you remove ALL the bleach cream!
5. Set outside to dry. Replace the laces.
