I have completed another DIY. One that took longer than I expected and I have to admit, hurt my fingers a little...but well worth it. I took a basic drawstring bag and thought it would look great if I studded the Chanel logo on the front with studs I purchased from New York Design Shop. I love the end result! Don't mean to toot my own horn but...TOOT TOOT!

DIY #2

1.26.2010

I've completed another shoe DIY. This one much easier than my last. My inspiration came from the wonderful Chiara Ferragni from The Blonde Salad.
Old converse & spikes ordered from Studs and Spikes.com. That's pretty much it. I'm extremely happy with the result and see myself wearing these old beat up converse much more often.

I had DIY'd an old pair of shoes a few months ago but did not have my blog up then. I'm wearing them today and decided to post up the pics of the shoes in the making. Sandpaper, car spray paint, thumbtacks, leather/PU swatch, superglue & two similar belts. Voila!

Old shoes

Spray paint process (newspaper inside to not paint the interior). Sanded the shoes before in order for paint to stick better as shoes are patent.

Studding process

Superglued leather swatches to create a loop in back of ankle. Cut up 2 belts to create ankle straps.
