3.  Use Markers & Stencils

If you aren’t very artistic, you can use markers and stencils so that you can get the design perfect. Or better yet, let your kids freehand draw on the shoes themselves with the markers. That will keep the kids busy! If you want to use stencils, make sure you find stencils that will line up with what your kids are interested in. You can find stencils at most craft stores, but be careful of the sizing. You might find that stencils for bullet journals are a better size for shoes than, say, wallpaper stencils. Most kids are going to want certain designs on their shoes, and you do not need to draw them freehand if you are not capable.  You also can spray paint the shoes with these stencils very fast.
