Instructions:

1. Lightly sand shoes to roughen up the surface.
    
2. Wipe dust from shoes and be certain that all paintable areas are completely clean of any dust.
    
3. Paint shoes according to chalkboard paint package instructions. Let dry completely.
    
4. If you are using a new piece of chalk, be sure to write on a sample surface first to remove the hard outer coating. Otherwise, the chalk can mar the chalkboard painted surface.
    
5. Write words and doodles. Use soft cloth to remove chalk and re-write whenever you want!
