…All the other kids with their pumped up kicks studded kicks better run… faster than my glue gun.
I was inspired by THESE (which also happen to come in leopard print). But I wasn’t about to dish out the dough for another pair. So? I made some. AND (might I add) when you get asked who they’re by… You can say, “Yours truly.” Flash them a smile and a wink or two, followed by a, “No, I’m not even joking!”
Kinda fun playing DIY designer, huh?
Links To: Flats Glue (or hot glue) Chalkboard Pen 8mm Pyramid Studs
The pack of studs I bought happened to come with a few snazzy extras (booya). Rather than let my munchkin use them for matchbox car speed bumps, I decided to spruce up an old cardi. I followed the same process as the shoes; however, after the e6000 glue dried, I ironed the backside of the pocket to adhere securely.

So adorable – and perfect on the cardigan too!
Gorgeous! Love that cobalt blue on you, and I love that you just studded the backs of the shoes. I love the ones from your photoshoot too but they’re too bling to wear daily – this is just enough!
What a great DIY! Can’t wait to try it in the future to spruce up a few items! Thanks for sharing!
Great outfit and tutorial…but I was upset to see the title “pumped up kicks.” You know that is a reference to guns, right? The song is about kids shooting other kids at school. As a young Virginia Tech alum whose family was forever changed by the VT shooting, this is very troublesome. I am extremely offended by this song and its popularity bothers me; people don’t seem to listen to what it is saying.
I love the outfit! Great creativity. I want that necklace!
