customize a pair of old boots , kibboots look-a-likes
I was searching for a pair of kibboots, which are colourfull handmade boots, but they are very expensive, so I decided I could use a pair of old boring leather boots and customize them a bit! they don't actually look like real kibboots but still I think they are pretty nice! very easy to make!

  • Step 1

    use different colours embroidery thread to create 2 friendship bracelets (you can choose colours that fit by your clothes)

    there is a great tutorial for friendship bracelets on honestlywtf.
    http://honestlywtf.com/diy/diy-friendship-bracelet/

  • Step 2

    make sure that the frienship bracelets are long enough to fit around your shoes, and leave enough thread at both sides of the bracelets so that you can make a braid at both ends, that you can tight up together!

  • Step 3

    knot the bracelets around your shoes
    most of the times the bracelet will be kept in place because of pleads in the leather, but you can also sew the bracelets to your boots
    I choosed not to, because I wanted to use the bracelets on different boots and have a variety in colours
