DIY Idea: Ash Costello’s Boots

Ash Costello posted this photo on her tumblr of a pair of old Dr. Martens that she customized with chains and charms. Looks like an easy idea for a DIY project!

Ash says: “So Im kind of like a hoarder. I NEVER throw away old jewelry or charms! awhile back I saw this idea online and finally had some time last night, so I dumped out my old bag of jewelry and attached a TON of stray charms to an old necklace and voila! super boots!”

It looks like she used key chains to attach the chains though the grommets of the boots (that’s the hole for the shoe laces). You can attach charms to chains with jump rings, using needle nose pliers to tighten them if you aren’t good with your hands.
