You Will Need (2 things)

  • 1 Pair of Black Sneakers (We got ours @ H&M for $15!)
  • 1 Pack - Large Silver Pyramid Studs

Steps (13 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Get your sneaks ready for some serious studding. Say goodbye to those plain janes and prepare for a DIY Makeover!

  2. 2

    Unlace your sneakers. It'll be MUCH easier to stud them without the laces in.

  3. 3

    Take your first stud, line it up with the bottom seam of sneaker, and push hard. The bottom layer is definitely the hardest because of the extra material that's there.

  4. 4

    Look into the inside of the show. There should be four points to the stud. Simply fold them over with your nails, a scissor or plyers. They are definitely easy to push, however after a lot of studding, your fingers will get pricked!

  5. 5

    Line the bottom of the shoe with studs as shown.

  6. 6

    Continue studding...

    We are almost done with the third layer and boy our fingers are SO prickly!!

  12. 12

    Add those laces. There are many different way to tie 'em up, we just went with the classic lace up with tongue flapped down a lil' bit
