As any Doctor Who fan knows, the Tenth doctor famously wore Converse sneakers. I added Tardises to mine to add to the Whovianism, making these shoes a perfect project for the upcoming 50th Anniversary Special, Day of the Doctor, next weekend. #SaveTheDay

Instructions

  1. Small p1160277

    Cut two pieces of scrap leather into Tardis shapes. Look at an image for reference.

  2. Small p1160279

    If your leather is a dark colour, start by painting it a light base colour.

  3. Small p1160281

    Build up shades of blue until you are happy with the colour.

  4. Small p1160282

    Add details such as the lines of the blocks on the door and the black sign.

  5. Small p1160786

    Add windows and the text in white. I used a toothpick and pin to paint this on.

  6. Small p1160788

    Seal with a layer of modge podge.

  7. Small p1150976

    Use glue to stick the Tardises onto the shoes and then stitch to secure.
