DIY project- for Rodarte spikey heels with studs

They look a hell of alot like the Christian Louboutin heels.
I'm sure this was time consuming but it's still a great DIY.It's something I'd never thought of doing before.
I have some boots that could use some spikes on them.

Why'd she use glue? The metal prongs on the studs would have held it just as good, if not better and on her outcome, you can see the glue.

It's very nice, and it's something that I'd probably do if really bored and short on money..

^^ She probably used glue for a few reasons: the prongs, even bent correctly, could have wound up scratching her feet; and if they were already removed from a belt, the prongs were probably too weak to re-bend and hold securely. With glue it might also have been easier to control the exact placement of each stud.

They look amazing!

They look awesome. Lots of hard work and patience but it would certainly pay off

f**king sweet! I have used studs to spice up a pair of shoes, but not to that extent.

Those are hawtt. I do prefer the curved spikes on the inspiration pair, but still. Hawtt.

I have done this before with an old pair of heels.

I just used these iron on fabric studs so I just glued them on. I should of used ones with spikes b/c one stud fell of when I went dancing.
