DIY Bow Heels

This DIY Bow Project Will Add a Stylish Flair to Any Pair of Heels

This DIY bow heels project is a creative craft that's perfect for the spring and summer season. With minimal materials and pre-owned pumps, this DIY is easy to perform.

Using any pair of pumps, previously owned or recently bought, this DIY requires a piece of material that matches the material of the shoe, glue, scissors and two shoe or earring clips. It is listed that a template is needed to trace the bow design, however, this design can be drawn freehand if the wearer is confident enough. Along with the minimal materials, this DIY project also requires minimal time. The final product will reveal a stylish pair of pumps with removable bows for added versatility.

To create your own DIY bow heels, follow the detailed instructions listed on the 'A Pair and a Spare' blog.
