I found this project while browsing on how to revamp my old boots. Original source:
So, I took a pair of my old boots, which, as you see, were in a really bad shape from all the rain and walking (but they are so damn comfortable, so I just didn‘t have the heart to throw them out :> ).
Then I kind of repaired them, so that if it started to rain, my feet wouldn't get instantly wet.
I couldn‘t find any lace, so I used old curtain. And I used acrylic spray paint, but for suede boots, you should use fabric spray paint, because other spray paints will have a crispy feel on the suede.
Then I just followed clear instructions posted on Style Addict blog. I placed the lace over the boot and sprayed paint. I wanted to define flowers and other areas to be a bit blurry. As for the repaired heel, I wanted it to bee much darker and the patch less noticeable. Then let the paint dry fully.
And TA-daaa. My new old boots are ready to bee worn. *Well, they are not really how I expected them to be, but knowing my luck with stencil "technique" it is not that bad :>
