DIY: Let's Stud it!

Making studded shoes out of cloth based plain shoes is pretty easy and interesting to learn to begin with. I hope you remember the white shoes that we wore once a week for drill and other physical activities during school days (India) J. We absolutely hated them and esp whitening them was a big pain but Who knew that white clothed shoes could be best used for studding them up? J That’s the easiest one!

-          Get your hands on the reasonable priced shoes that are made of cloth for this post.

-          Studs or Spikes – I have picked up 5/8” Pyramid Large Studs, you can opt the smaller ones as well. In fact smaller would be better, this time I opted for a change as I own one already with smaller studs.

-          A butter Knife in order to press in, the ends of the studs.

Step 1: Shoes before – Converse shoes that I got in a very good deal. J

Step 2: Studs – Get your studs ready and picture the design well before. Once the studs are pressed in punch in small holes (of course) and it would look real bad if you plan change it later on.

Step 3: Press in stud -1, Ends would pop on the other side of the shoe -2, Press in with butter knife. This is it would look from inside once you done -3. Concerned if the ends would bother your feet?? – NO!! You would not even realize if there is something in it!

Step 4: They are ready, enjoy flaunting them!! J

Well, this is the simplest form of the studded shoes. I have these large studs and spikes ordered for my Denim Jacket and for a pair of old jeans! Once done, I will surely share it across!

They are numerous ways to get it done. You can stud any accessory or clothing like Bags, Shoes, Scarfs, T-Shirts, Jackets, Jeans, Belts, Ballerina Shoes, High Heels leather shoes, Wallet, Headband et al. Here's an interesting link with pictures on the same: Check it out here – Stud Obsessed.
