Do-It-Yourself Studded Boots

When you buy a new pair of leather boots, there's no rule which dictates you must wear them in the style the come out of the box. You can customize and edit your boots in a myriad of ways, and one of the simplest is by adding studs. It may require a little elbow grease as you penetrate the leather, but it's an achievable task and one that can add unique character to your boot.

Instructions

    1

    Procure a wooden block that's the correct size to fit inside your leather boot. This will provide a secure surface to hammer through to when you're creating holes.

    2

    Press the prongs of the stud into the leather, working your way down the boot, to make indentations. This will act as a guide to where you will hammer in the nail.

    3

    Place the boot, with block of wood inside, onto a flat surface. Hammer a nail through the indentations you have just made. Keep hammering until you feel the nail penetrate the leather and enter the wood inside. Remove the nail and move on to the next indentation.

    4

    Push your studs through the holes you've made, prong end first. Once the prongs penetrate the hole in the leather fold them over and into the leather to keep them securely in place.
