Charlotte Consorti gave her boots the perfect ‘just for girls’ customisation and shared all of her secret techniques with us.

Charlotte was tired of searching for the perfect model of girls boot, an expensive purchase when not the perfect colour, … so she decided to create her own style and colours,  ‘Made by Charlotte’. The result? A pair of Liquid Force Synergy boots covered in pink with jewels and glitter accompanied by a little Hello Kitty keyring!

If you want to see the complete process you can check it out on Charlotte’s Blog.

If you skate or longboard  then you are already riding a potential canvas under your feet, you just need to find the right inspiration and motivation to get creative.  We found a brand who does just that… here our a selection of some of our favourites, especially the unicorn!  Check them all out at Madrid Skateboards.

If you want to know where to buy your very own blank deck, just type “blank skate decks” into Google and you will find an online retailer on your country that sells them or they are also for sale on eBay and Amazon.
