I DO NOT own Wicked or any of the characters or copyrights!!! I made these solely based on my insane Wicked obsession!!!

Okay, so I'll admit if Converse were to come out with a Wicked-ized version of their style, I would die, then bring myself back and then run out and buy a pair. But since they haven't and most likely never will...Well, I was bored the other day and thought of my own pair of green Converse just sitting in my closet. They hadn't been drawn on or anything, so I thought up a Wickedly delicious idea and drew it out on them!
The "Elphie" drawing on the toe was made with Sharpie, a green magic marker and a red pen.
The "Glinda" drawing on the other toe was made with Sharpie, a pink gel pen, a purple gel pen and surprisingly, White-Out. My white paint pen ran out, so...I had to make do!
The drawings on the sides, of Glinda in her bubble (which I made up!) and the classic "Wicked" witch logo (which I did not make up!) were drawn on with Sharpie and outlined with pastel green gel pen.

I also added sequins in patterns along the sides, leading up to the Sharpie illustrations. I also added beads on the tongue, just below the pictures drawn on the toe. They were sooo hard to sew on securely, working with canvas and all.
I also used something I pretty much swore I'd avoid using, but ended up giving in and using it: fabric paint. I used glitter fabric paint to paint glitter in the stitching.

You can find the work that I did on the other parts of the shoes, work not shown in this picture, on the backs of the shoes and the inner sides of the shoes, here:

Nope, quite easy, actually, considering they were relatively new and the toes weren't all scuffed up.

And thanks so much! haha, trust me, if I could make a personalized pair of Wicked Converse for every fan who's ever complimented mine on here, I so would. But, alas, I cannot. :no:
