Reboot Your Shoes: gorgeous DIYs for your spare pairs
Everyone has that pair of shoes that’s a little too old, kind of boring, or just plain out of style, and you probably don’t get much use out of them because of it. For me, it’s a pair of Steve Madden brown suede pointed pumps from six years ago - they’re cute, but they’re just not me, and I’ve probably worn them twice. So what do I do with them?
We say, there’s a DIY remedy for everything! Our friends at ShoeSnap have a great Pinterest board dedicated to DIY projects for shoes, which is what inspired us to search for a few of our favorites. (Here’s what I’ll be doing to those suede pumps.) Check out some fun DIY fixes for those shoes you want to spice up - or just go buy a brand new pair to decorate at home. We won’t tell.

Studs are in right now so there are plenty in stores, but we’re willing to bet you have a perfectly stud-able pair in your closet right now. Plus, if you make them yourself, you’ll have the spare pieces to fix them up if you lose any studs. Genius. Learn how here.
