12 OF THE BEST DIY SHOES MAKEOVERS.

I love a diy project that makes use of something you already own. Give your old shoes a new lease of life with one of these fantastic makeovers. You can paint them, stitch them, decorate them or cover them in beads. The decision is yours.

DIY Patch Patterned Sneakers

Today’s project is totally going to up your sneaker game! My friend sent me these Steve Madden patch high tops, and everything fell into place! I’m teaming up with Hipstapatch to show you how to DIY your way into really awesome sneakers with their easy-to-use mini patches! You’ll be stepping out in style in no time!

DIY Rhinestone Slider Sandals

I wear sandals most days, unless by some miracle it’s raining, so I’m always on the lookout for a good deal, and during my last trip to Forever 21 they were pricing out sandals at $5. I saw these dusty pink slider sandals and knew a makeover would do them well, so I opted for a DIY that would make my 10-year-old self very happy and made these DIY rhinestone slider sandals!

DIY Tassel Sneakers with Crop-A-Dile Big Bite

Today I’m reviving my love of footwear with these DIY tassel sneakers using the Crop-a-Dile Big Bite tool. Yep – you heard me, I’m using a Crop-a-Dile….for sneakers. You’re going to want to stick around for this one!

DIY Shoe Appliques

I’ve found an easy hack that will easily transform a basic shoe into something you’d be hard-pressed to take off! These DIY Shoe Appliques are the perfect solution. Luxury is only a pair of shoes away!

DIY Rhinestone Heels

If you thought my rhinestone obsession was just a phase, I’m happy to tell you that it’s not. The good news is that more and more I’ve noticed them creeping in on the style radar, especially on heels. And perhaps the even best news of all is that the trend is 100% DIY-able and takes little effort to pull off.

Folk Art Inspired Floral Statement Shoes

If you feel overwhelmed by the design process, keep in mind that it’s all simple shapes, a lot of it is just dots! I’d compare it to adult coloring books. It just takes time, patience, and maybe a good podcast to keep you company while you work. Please also feel free to copy my design if you like.

DIY Beaded Shoes – Winky Eye Pattern Flats

When you think of beads, you usually think of jewelry, right? I had to come up with an easy and unique project using the green label strung beads so I got outside the jewelry box! Follow along to make your own DIY beaded shoes.

DIY Abstract Paint Splatter Shoes

There’s just something about random, chaotic color that makes my heart go pitter patter. In case you feel the same way, I documented the super easy steps below so that you can make your own.

DIY Green Tassel Chuck Taylors

Learn how to create the coolest Gold Splatter, DIY Green Tassel Chuck Taylors.  Every time I have worn them out and about, I feel like I’m ready to take on the world!

Embroider White Canvas Sneakers

Recently we discovered Liz Payne and were blown away by her designs (check out her Etsy and Instagram). With the skills we’ve learned from Embroidery 101, we decided to tackle our own pair of embroidery sneakers for spring. It will take a long time so make this project this weekend or save it for a few days of Netflix marathoning.
