El-wire on some boots!
July 20, 2001
Scott put some el-wire on some white Docs he got at a thrift store.
[What *else* are you gonna do with *white* boots but snazz them up!]
His first attempt didn't go well -- hot glue sucks.
So I re-did them for him using my fancy plastic connectors.
The hot glue destroyed the original wire, so I simply re-made the wire part.
I ran the wires under the seams on the side of the boot!
They are totally hidden!
The driver is too big to hide, though...
Because the wire is in my fancy plastic connectors,
he can change the wires out if he wants to -- change to new colors!
Or replace them if they get damaged.
Here's also some white boots I did for myself.
I still want to put a feather over the wire part -- to soften the light some.
And the last photo was a serendipitous find!
This gives me some interesting ideas!
