How Do You Add Homemade Ankle Straps To High Heels?
• Get a pair of heels without an ankle strap and two pieces of ribbon at least 20 inches long (and we’re not talking cheap, paper ribbon. Nice silk or satin ribbon will work nicely. And make sure it will not split/snap if you pull on it a little bit). • Make sure your ribbon matches your heels. Alternatively, get a colour that is a nice complement to your heels, such as red silk ribbon with black heels. • Loop the ribbon around the heel of the shoe. • Cross the ribbon across the heel covering of the shoe, making an X across it and causing the ribbon to have one end on either side of your ankle. • Tie the ribbon (tightly) around your ankle and tie a nice bow on the outside of your ankle (on the right side of your right ankle, and the left side of your left one). Cut the ribbon to size if there is too much excess or the bow is too big that it droops.
