Patch Uggs

how to add patches to your boots  ||  boot patch DIY

There are some trends, as ugly as they are, that I love. Crocs and a total YES at my house (where your dignity slowly leaks out of the holes in your shoes), and so are Uggs. Now granted, I refuse to purchase the real deal Uggs for their expensive price tags. Instead, I buy the cheapo depo $5 – $10 version that Walmart provides. And we live in them all. Winter. long.

The good thing about spending less than $10 on a pair of boots though is that I don’t mind when my kids come home and they are covered in mud (which they always do). And I also don’t mind decorating them with patches – because hey, why not?!! So with a few leftover patches sitting around after our back to school backpack patch extravaganza, I got to work on their latest footwear.

Patch Boots DIY

how to add patches to your boots

 

Skill level: Beginner

Time needed: 30 minutes – 1 hour

 

MATERIALS:

  • Patch
  • Fake Ugg Boots
  • Embroidery floss
  • Darning needle

 

HOW TO ADD PATCHES TO YOUR BOOTS:

  1. Place the patch on your boot where desired.
  2. Thread the needle with 3 strands of embroidery floss.
  3. Sew a straight stitch all around the patch to secure in place. You may need to push the push the back eye of the needle on a flat, hard surface to get through the boot in certain areas.
  4. When finished sewing all the way around the patch, tie off the thread and knot on the inside of the boot. Cut excess thread.

And you are finished!

*A leather palm is extremely helpful if you have one. I did not use a palm when sewing these patches on, but my fingers were sore afterwards.

I tried two different kind of patches for these boots. Iron on, and self stick patches. I found the iron on patches were easier, as the patches with a sticky back made the needle harder to work through.

She loves her new patch boots. Her only complaint was that I put the Hufflepuff patch on the back, instead of the front. Lol – silly Mom.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and until next time…

Happy sewing!
