dear Arty Crafty People - if you had some plain white Birkenstocks, how would you customise them?

are there any products to paint leather? or would you stick things on them?
or would that all be impossibly naff?
TIA

wouldn't it be a crime to mutilate a pair of birkenstocks??

tie lush ribbon around them. That way you could change the style and colour when you wanted

Just tie some round and then put a double knot in it and cut it fairly close. Do this with lots of different ribbons of similar colours
