Transcript
This is my last time showing you guys how to do the custom Timberland boots because when I post mine a few months ago, everyone was asking me to make theirs. No ma'am. No ma'am. So I'm going to show you how to do it yourself. Take the old shoe strings out and put some white shoe strings in. If you leave the old shoe strings in, it's going to look really tacky. Both shoe strings that I'm using in this video came in the same pack and it's in my Amazon storefront. You see what I'm doing with the shoe string? Loop it just like this. You want to leave a little space. You get done making your fruity loops, tie the ends in a knot so it doesn't move. You're basically just creating new shoe string holes for the big shoe string. For this part, just lace it up like normal. Make it look good, make sure it's even. This is why you wanted to leave a lot of space in there so you're not struggling pulling through your rope. When you're done doing that, tie the ends of the other shoe strings in a bunny tie. Tuck them in and don't bother them no more. Now it's time for the fun part. I got these designer charms from my vendor and it's in my link tree. All of the letter charms came off Amazon. These also came off Amazon too. If you can't find the vendor to the charms, let me know. You're going to need two different glues for this. I got the Gorilla Glue from Walmart and the other one from Amazon. Yes, you need both. If you want to use something else, do you. I'm starting with the bottom of the Timbs and I got this bedazzled looking thing from Amazon I believe. Don't quote me, I bought this two years ago. After doubling that up, I felt like it looked really good. Now I'm going to go in with the bigger charms for the shoe strings. I'm putting the glue right on the shoe string because I want the letters to go here. But for bigger charms, I would suggest putting the glue on the charm and not the shoe string. These safety pins also came from Amazon. I'll link that in my storefront as well. These Timberland boots are for my daughter's fourth birthday and they turned out to be really cute. They went with her outfit so well. Ever since I made my first Timberland boots, my daughter wanted some of her own and now she can finally be like mommy. I also made her pants and her belt too, but I don't have a video on that. Now I go how to ball at her birthday party with these shoes on, and they didn't even get dirty. But now that you know how to make yours, go ahead. Love you.
