Sneaker Designs
What's on your feet? Design a sneaker style that fits your personality and interests. Create a pair with flair!
1. When you shop, you pick out your own clothes combinations. You could even design and sew your own clothes, but when it comes to sneakers, you pick the styles from what's available.
2. Think about a sneaker design you could invent. Remember sneakers have lots of layers and many different parts, such as rubber soles, air cells, upper fabric, tongues, and a shaped heel. The pieces are all clamped and glued together, sometimes with laces or self-stick closures. What are your favorite sneaker colors, designs, and special features to fit who you are?
3. With Crayola® Washable Markers, design your dream sneakers on white paper. Use your imagination to make your style unique. Cut out the sneakers with Crayola Scissors.
4. Cut a chenille stem in pieces. Use Crayola School Glue to attach the stems to the back of your sneakers. Glue the stems to colorful construction paper. Your personalized sneakers will be raised off the page to accent your design.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
