Make Your Own Floral Flip Flops!

I’ve seen quite a few flip flops sold in stores with a floral theme. But, instead of spending $20+ on them, why not make your own?!

To do so, you just need a few basic supplies:

Flip flops, floral embellishments (these flowers were found at Hobby Lobby & come in other colors like pink, purple, blue, and green too), scissors, and glue (I used hot glue. Sometimes this doesn’t stick as well to plastic. If you run into that issue, you can try an epoxy or Gorilla glue–or just put a few hand stitches through).

Directions:

1. Remove the flower from the stem and take all the plastic pieces off.

2. Once the flower is removed, take off any additional fabric you don’t want. In this case, I removed the largest pieces off the back.

3. Once you’ve taken off any parts you’d like removed, then cut off the rest of the “stem” so it is flush with the fabric.

4. Place glue in the center of the flip flop.

5. Begin gluing on the embellishment, one layer at a time.

In less than 5 minutes, you should have a really cute DIY floral flip flop!

Repeat the process with the other one. Then, voila, fun summer shoes!

Have YOU embellished your flip flops before?
