20 Stylish DIY Pumps

From DIY Caviar-Capped Kicks to DIY Superhero Stilettos

— June 3, 2015 — Fashion
With these DIY pumps, it has become much easier to personalize your shoes. These projects range from fairly easy crafts to moderate difficulty.

DIY pumps such as the 'Brit & Co.' slingbacks feature a lace-up detail that is easy to apply. This personal touch adds an on-season decal that can be worn from day to night. Fringe-featuring DIYs add a fun touch to any pair of pumps and can also pair with any festival fashion accessories. Other examples of DIY pumps include geometric-patterned pumps and bedazzled heel accents for pumps that exhibit easy-to-apply embellishments. Lastly, handmade sci-fi heels make for a geeky project any Star Wars fan can enjoy.

These projects are the perfect way to personalize or upcycle any pair of pumps
