Have your ever coveted a pair of Sam Edelman Lorissa pumps? If you're anything like me, you've got three or four on your wish list but can't justify the $200-$300 price tag? Now you can make these awesome Spikey Pumps, for less than  a fraction of the cost and you can use what ever shoe and spikes you want.

Tools & Equipment :
  • Power Drill
  • Drill Bit- size depends on the screws you use
  • 1'' Thin Tree Spike  (2 bags)
  • 1'' Cone Spike (2 bags)
  • 3/8 '' Black Metal Punk Spikes 100 pk.
  • Screwdriver
  • Pair of heels

The spikes I used to create this look are called  Screw Back Spikes and come in various sizes, colors & shapes. There are many internet sources to purchase them and I have provided links in the first step. I definitely recommend shopping around for different price points. Ebay seems to have some of the cheapest screwbacks, but they typically ship from Hong Kong, which can take a couple weeks to arrive.
