A Flip Flop Makeover!

 

 

 

 

 

What you need:

-          Inexpensive plastic flip flops

-          Glue gun

-          Ribbon

-          Fabric flowers

-          Gems or beads

-          Tweezers

-          Adult Assistant

 

You will need an adult assistant to help you with this craft.

What you do:

1.       If you would like to add bows to your flip flops, make two small bows out of ribbon.

2.       Have your adult assistant use the hot glue gun to put a large bead of glue wherever you want to position your bow or flower on the top of your flip flop.

3.       Hold bow or flower in place with the tweezers until the glue is dry.

4.       Holding a gem or bead with tweezers, ask your adult assistant to put a small bead of hot glue on the back and affix the gem or bead to the middle of the bow or flower.

5.       Repeat with second flip flop.

    Hey mebelovin and lillyluvie,
    I’m looking for a new name and was wondering if you had any suggestions, cause your names are so cool. Here are some things I like: cats, foxes, girly things, reading, art, and creativity. I hope the list of my likes helps you. If you want more just say so. Thanks in advance. :)

    Hello TOMBOY & all, my user is kitty98981234.

    Here are some ideas:
    -1: make three (3) pieces of ribbon to tie around the top of the flip flop
    -2: add some more ribbon on the sides of the flip flop strap
    -3: if you buy clear flip flops at the bottom you can cut paper to fit the size of the bottom & make little dots of glue to attach it

    That’s a cool idea! Unfortunately, I cannot wear flip flops because they look bad with my orthotics inside, and if I don’t wear my orthoics, my feet will hurt really bad the next day.

    My friend did something similar. She glued a really cool peice of ribbon on a head band. It was really pretty and the neat thing was that it was 1 of a kind!
