DIY Boot Cuff Tutorial

A while back I showed you how to make a pair of boot cuffs out of an old pair of socks. Today's "tutorial" is much the same except is uses an old sweater. I feel almost guilty calling this a tutorial as there are so few steps!

Find an old sweater in your donation pile and cut the sleeves off. You can make them as long or as short as you like. They just need to be long enough to tuck inside your boots. I went a little longer with this pair for a little extra warmth :)

I didn't worry about hemming the bottom/cut side as they will be hidden inside your boots (and I hate to sew).

Next I took some cute handmade buttons from my stash and used matching colored floss to hand sew them onto the cuffs. I chose to turn down the cuff before sewing, but this step is optional.

Ta-Da...you have a fancy new pair of boot cuffs to wear out on the town! I made these on Saturday so I could wear them out for Valentine's Day :)

Been working on any fun crafty projects at your house?

Super Easy Boot Cuff Tutorial

Ever since buying my first pair of skinny jeans back in November, I've been on the lookout for cute boots and boot cuffs to wear with them. Then I realized I could make a pair of cuffs myself. I'm not sure I can claim this as a tutorial as there are only 2 supplies and not much for instructions. But I thought maybe this is something some of you hadn't thought of so I thought I'd share :)

Super Easy Boot Cuffs

1.Find yourself a cute pair of socks hanging out in your drawer.

2. Cut the socks so you have a nice wide strip of material. This pair of socks was short, so I used the piece between the heel and toe. A longer pair of socks would work great and you could just cut above heel.

3. Put your new cuff on over your jeans. (3b. Realize how hard it is to take a picture of your leg/foot.)

4. Admire your new boot cuffs along with your cute new boots :)

Okay, I told you it was a pretty simple "tutorial"!
