Tips and Tricks

  • By applying several layers of Sock Stop paint, you can create a great 3D effect. First apply the desired motif and let it dry thoroughly. Then paint over the motif again with the same colour and let it dry. If desired, this process can be repeated a second time.

How it is done:

  • Before painting, wash the socks without fabric softener to remove any finishes. Allow to dry.
  • First create a template from the cardboard in the form of an elongated strip with a rounded end, which is pushed into the sock. The strip should be as wide as the sock itself.
  • Shake the bottle for at least 30 seconds. Then test paint the Sock Stop colour on a kitchen towel first.
  • Then the socks can be designed. First draw the thinnest possible lines for the twigs and leaves with reseda. Then leave the paint to dry lying down.
  • You can then add individual dots as berries with the red paint. Let dry again lying down.
  • Once the first side is dry, the sock can be turned over and designed from the second side.
  • Let the socks dry lying down after designing. Preferably for 24 hours. Afterwards, the socks can be washed inside out up to 40° C with mild detergent. Do not tumble dry or iron.
