Transform Your Shoes With Cricut: Diy Customized Vans Tutorial

[@samm6672]

for the templates you could use blue tape or masking tape and a xacto knife

I have another pair of shoes I’m doing, I’m going to try this method

[@ashleefalco]

Ya know, I've left your comment not responded to for months because I've been trying to think of an idea for you. But I'm drawing a huge blank! I'm sorry! Were you ever able to find Inspo?

These are so cool it inspired me to try it out on some vans. I am using just the printable transfer paper though and I ran into a problem becuase it doesn't really work for super detailed graphics because there will be white showing from the transfer paper. I really like those transparent transfer papers you used. Do you know if they make them for printouts on a regular jet printer?

[@ashleefalco]

Hello! All printable transfer sheets for clothing will have a white backing. If you wanted to forgo the HTV route, you'd need DTF transfer sheets. DTF transfers are done on a special printer with zero backing and white toner printer to create the super detailed designs that you're looking for.

[@livingfreewithashley2200]

@@ashleefalco Got it. Thanks.

[@livingfreewithashley2200]

and also, what do you put on it to protect it after the transfer? If I am doing just regular jet printer transfer?

[@ashleefalco]

You shouldn't need anything over the top of your shoes to project them. No matter what route you choose they should be fine without anything

[@livingfreewithashley2200]

@@ashleefalco Yeah unfortuantly the printable transfer paper doesn't stay on my vans. it peels right off. I am going to try vinyl cement to hold it or maybe modge podge?

[@kimmajor4301]

It’s been a year now, how long did the design last?

[@ashleefalco]

They’re still in perfect condition

[@chanelflowers8264]

👏👏👏👏 how did you get the blue grid for pcaman? this is so cool🤩

[@ashleefalco]

I imported the PacMan game background and just cropped everything out besides a couple blue lines.

[@suarezrobert68]

I think it would be easier if you used tape to make the template...

[@ashleefalco]

But how would you get it off?

[@maelyscorujo4112]

❤

[@ashleefalco]

thanks for watching!

[@TrimzzDotNet]

wouldn’t that be easier to just cover the shoes in pac-man fabric??

[@ashleefalco]

probably, but where to find the exact pattern that I'm wanting ... I just love having the ability creating my own.

[@jamessmallwood7448]

There is a easier way of doing this In fusion 360 with canvas
