Are you using stretchy or non-stretchy fabric? Do you want to be able to remove them, or have them permanently attached?

Here's a tutorial for non-stretchy boot covers, permanently glued on:

Have used this one. Very easy and works great, you just may need a friend to assist for the perfect fit. Be sure to pin TOWARDS THE THIGH because you'll be stuck with pins, otherwise when you're removing your leg.

I'll be using stretchy material! And I will be attaching them to the boots permanently! How do I keep them from falling down? o:
Should I just use fashion tape? Or maybe some elastic?

This is how I make boot covers every time. i constantly get compliments how how good they look. So, if you do it right, they can look fantastic.

I use this tutorial when I make boot covers:

It comes in handy for attaching the boot cover to the actual shoe since it can be slippery if you dont have some sort of base material at the bottom of your boot cover.

Most times they should be high enough or tight enough to stay on your leg on their own, but if not I use Sock Glue or Body Adhesive.

What kind of fabric are you using? I used this tutorial when I made my first pair of boots:

I did have to modify it though, because my boots weren't high heeled or tight. Still worked.
