Recently in a fabric shop I found countless beautiful braids with fringes, pom-pom, lace, flower and animal designs. I immediately thought that I could tinker them into something beautiful, and bought some of them. What has become of it, look at it here: Shoe inspired by the Louis Vuitton „Spicy series“. I have chosen colors which I can combine well with the contents of my wardrobe. By the way, this DIY project is best for strappy sandals.

For this fashion DIY tutorial you need:

1.) Bobble-border
2.) Leo-border (or similar, depending on your taste)
3.) Fring-border
4.) Lace-border
5.) Scissors
6.) Hot glue gun
7.) Sewing kit

THE FASHION DIY TUTORIAL

First, mark the spot where the border will be added later. With long straps, it is helpful to draw small arrows with the orientation of the fringes as well.

Now cut the various borders to the desired length.

Sew the bobble-border and the fring-border together.

Now, with the hot glue gun, put a thin layer of glue on the border and (a little bit shifted) on the straps. IMPORTANT: If too much glue, it can happen that the border will not stick to the shoe, therefore prefer to use less adhesive.

Press the border firmly on the shoe.

Apply to the lace-border with a thin layer of glue.

Again, press on.

Now stick the Leo-border to the front strap.

And glue the lace-border over it. DONE!

The final result.
