Get a pair of keds or a similar style shoe. Mine are from target.

Remove the laces and stuff the insides with newspaper

Choose a piece of lace to mimic

Tape it on the area you want to paint. Use the tape as a guideline to for where you want the paint

Choose paint or a paint pen. If using paint I suggest using a sponge and a paper plate.

I chose the paint pen in white

Paint over the lace. This is a little harder then it looks

The finished product

Add the laces and congratulations! You have a new pair of keds!
