DIY - Upgrading my heels with rhinestones and a ribbon

in Hive Diy3 years ago
I have done a lot of DIY projects lately, and one of my favorites is these heels. I bought the heels online on a thrift shop for around 5$. I had a plan to add rhinestones to the heel, and maybe put a nice ribbon on them too. I searched around youtube for how I could do it and after a little bit of inspiration I just started.

Putting on rhinestones isn't hard at all, it only takes a lot of patience and time. I use a glue ment for fabric, that also can handle water.

This is the heel before I started the project.

I started with putting rhinestones around the corner of the heel.

I used rhinestones in the size 2,4 around the heel, and mixed it with 2,8 mm inside of the heel. I also filled in with smaller rhinestones where it's needed.

Still filling in with rhinestones. This takes a few hours.

When the heel was done and shiny with rhinestones,

I started with the bow. I didn't really know how I should do this, but thanx to THIS YOUTUBE I learned it quick. I thought this should be the hardest just because I am a perfectionist. But this was kind of easy actually.

You need a needle and a black thread to do this, and some nice fabric for the bow. After making it I only glued it on.

To make the bow complete I glued a little pice of the fabric around the bow so it looks like a real bow.

Aaaaand this is the end result!

What do you think?

I kind of regret to not making the bow a little bit bigger, but when I was making it I was scared for the bows to touch each other when I walked. But this is my first heel I ever DIY, and I love the result.

I have actually filmed one of the other DIY projects too!
MY FIRST DIY FILM... so stay tuned! 😍

How great! They look super beautiful and elegant. It is certainly a spectacular idea and very useful for these dates, we can give another chance to some old shoes or look a little boring. I loved them.

Thank you so much! I think its really nice to save money and buy used heels (these was only used once). And it's nice to try to be a little bit creative as well!
