DIY Studded Heel Backs

September 4, 2012

Posted 09/12

I am heading to NYC this afternoon for IFB Conference, and these heels are in my suitcase! I need to jazz up these nude pumps just for a temporary NY feel. What is great about this DIY is that you can easily remove these when you are over the studded look….

Pick up a pack or two of sticky back studs and you have yourself a new pair of shoes. No need to spend the $$$ for a new pair – just shop your closet!

You can peel and place these studs (got mine in the scrapbook section at Hobby Lobby) by hand, or use a pliers – whichever comes easier for you.

My nude pumps are from Jessica Simpson Collection. (Similar here or here)

There are some great versions out there for DIY studded heels. Leave a link if you have one:)

Here are a few versions I have seen:

Along Abbey Road

Wow…amazing transformation and I can’t believe those are peel and stick. I’m sure your style will bring you confidence in NY!

What a great DIY. I always bypass the scrap booking section. But maybe it’s time to start giving it a closer look…Have fun at the conference!

So pretty! I hope, since they’re sticky, that you won’t lose any. Let us know how they hold up!

This is fantastic. I also love that it isn’t permanent. What a great way to get more wear out of a pair of shoes! 🙂

Looks so pretty! Love the reversible part too. Sometimes I won’t DIY something because I’m afraid I’ll get tired of it– this is the perfect solution!

Crown counsel asked that Jakins look at jail for 4 months, even though defence asked for just a conditional sentence, indicating he could provide his time within the community presented he abided by many different issues.
