DIY: Extraordinary Flip Flops!

Here is an awesome project that you should make for yourself!
Flip Flops: from ordinary to extraordinary in 5 minutes and under 5$!!
Yep, you heard me!
I needed black flip flops but hate wearing plain ones. I needed somewhat dressy but didn’t want to pay the price.
HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED:
Ordinary Flip Flops – old or new.
(Old Navy Flip Flops are on sale right now 2 for $5. JoAnn’s also has cheap ones, 2 for $5)
Embellished Ribbon – you can find these in JoAnn’s, you buy them by the yard and they have endless possibilities
(or you can use your own ribbon and make your own ruffle)
Glue – I used Gorilla Glue
Flower Embellishment
I measured the straps on my flip flops and each strap was about 6 inches. I got 12 inches of ruffled embellished ribbon, and 12 inches of plain velvet ribbon.

Cut your ribbons to the size of your straps, and glue on with your glue.

Clamp the ribbon down (I just used hair clips) and let dry. (okay, without the glue drying part these flip flops take 5 minutes!) Gorilla glue takes about 2-3 hours to fully dry. I just let them sit over-night.

I made my own flower embellishments from polyester material. Cut out circles, then burn around the edges. Stick on top of each other and glue. Then stick jewels or beads in the middle. I just hot glued the flowers to the ribbon on the flip flops:
And here’s the finished product!!
Hope you all have fun making yourself some cheap, but adorable flips!!

Thanks so much for letting me share!!

LOVE, KAMI
