Masking Tape Shoes

Masking Tape Shoes

Materials: Masking tape

Dimensions: 4" x 4 1/2" x 10 1/2"

Mock paper shoe

 For the right shoe, I added the parts of tape as I went. I learned that for the left shoe, it was easier to create all the pieces separately and assemble the pieces at one time.

 I created the sides of the shoe by doubling the tape and then used a hole punch to make the loop holes for the shoe laces.

Textured bottom of the shoe

 I used the bone and carving tools to create the texture of the shoe. The Xacto knife was used to cut out some of the tape to add more dimension.
