Reupholstered boots



Lately it seems my favorite things to refashion have been shoes (not surprising—my favorite things in general are shoes!).

Most recently, it was a pair of winter white boots that had turned slightly scruffy after 6 years of being well loved.

With some glue and a tiny bit of stitchcraft, I gave them new life by covering them with a fresh outer layer of vaguely floral chiffon (that was part of a previous refashion itself!).
