The first thing that you'll probably want to do is fill your bucket with water, and then thoroughly scrub the insides of it with a sponge. Then dump the water somewhere that isn't in your way, such as a side yard or a garden.
Getting Rustic!

First, place your shoes in the bucket and fill with water till above the shoes, and then place 4 or five capfuls of bleach on top, then stir. Let this mixture sit for 30 minutes. Make sure that your shoes are completely under the substance.
Finishing Up

After you have let the mixture sit for 30 minutes, you can take out the canvas shoes. I suggest letting them air dry for around 15 minutes, and then throwing them in the washer and dryer for a nice finish. I hope that you enjoyed this instructable, and your new rustic shoes!!!
