DIY Tassel Heels

1. Gather the supplies:

For this DIY Tassel Heels project, I need to find this simple style of sandal where the back heel buckle slips out of the holder. I found a pair of Steve Madden sandals on sale at TJ Maxx that were perfect. At my local craft store, Joann’s, I picked up some black upholstery rope plus some black upholstery tassels. That’s all that was needed. (I can imagine finding other ties to switch out if I so desire.)

2. Take out the detachable straps.

Simply pull the straps out of each sandal. Put these aside–you never know when you might want to use them again.

3. String in the cord.

Now insert the cord into the back heel holder on each sandal. Pull through. These are your laces or tie for the sandal.

4. Tie on the tassels to the rope.

This was the trickiest part. Luckily with all the tassels flailing everywhere, this DIY project was very forgiving. Underneath the tassel, I was able to find two thicker strings. I used those two strings to tie the tassel around the rope. Basically I knew I could fiddle around with attaching the tassels because there are so many strands going every which way. Since the tassels are tied on to the rope, I could easily take them off and attach other decorative ends according to what style I’d like with these sandals. They really are versatile!

Voila! I’m ready to embrace the tassel trend this fall!

    1. Especially if you already have a pair of similar sandals. They’ve been all the rage it seems for awhile now. I was late to the show, but I’m happy to mix mine up!

      As always, thanks for stopping by Samantha! A x
