- Design your wellies: See our page wellinton boot design step-by-step guide
- Ebay: Search for a cheap white pair of wellies on ebay (or see our webpage of white wellies) and use paint to decorate them using a design that you've practised on paper using our welly stencil
- Acrylic Paint: Use special acrylic paint from Tulip Paints - see links on this page
- Diamante Sparkles: Use diamond sparkles (Diamante) to add designs and letters to your boots - see the "Personalised Wellies" section below

- Custom Bulk Order (for businesses): Whole Sale Wellies.com lets order wellies for your business or event - minimum order quantity applies, but you can specify what you want your wellies to look like - this is great for events
Tulip™ Paint for Wellies
Tulip™ is the worlds leading brand of adhesive, durable, stretchy acrylic paint that sticks to wood, glass, fabric, ceramics, and wellington boots - just what we need! To purchase these paints:
- For USA see Tulip Paints on Amazon.com.
- For UK see Tulip Paints on Amazon.co.uk.
- Also available from Crafy Arts.co.uk - 3-Dimensional Fabric Paint webpage
Tulip™ is a unique 3D paint that you bottle-squeeze to create your work of art! Note: Very sticky paint - dries quickly - so be careful when applying to your favourite pair of wellies.
Practice on a piece of paper first. Then try it on a small area of the boot first - like the back of the heel - where nobody will notice.
Tulip™ is made by Duncan Crafts Paints - see their range of fabric paints at I Love To Create.com.

tips and techniques.
