Although us Floridians wear flip flops all year...even when I wear a sweater you can see me sporting the flops. :) I have...I think...1,002 pairs of them. OK. Maybe not that many but I have more than I can count. Dressy, casual, beachy, girly, whatever. And my crafty self loved the idea of making my own using fabric scraps to make them custom and super fun.
Oh and sorry if the flip flops don't look pristine. They were worn a few times by my little pinks until I snagged them to pretty them up. :) Here goes...
I know there are other fun tutorials out there by taking the whole thong out and just using fabric...so cute! Check out this one and this one from The Mother Huddle which are FABULOUS! I just happen to prefer the support these give while making them feel a bit more comfortable and a whole lot prettier.
Oh, and please know I will be getting back to visiting all of you very soon. Life has gotten VERY busy for me so sadly I have not been able to visit all you fabulous friends in A LONG WHILE! Just know I appreciate every one of you who read my blog even with YOUR busy lives and schedules and it means so much to me knowing you come to visit again and again.
Hugs all my fabulous friends!

Love this idea...sure wish I could wear these for working (with little kids) not a chance! And all I need know is a few pair of flips flops for that fabulous material I have here at home! Woo hoo!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute!!! And of course I have that same little cute bandana with the little flowers. I couldnt leave it on the shelf it was just too sweet but I have never used it becuause I din't need it... but now I do! I can totally use it to make these! I wish you lived up here because my little sis would LOVE to have you share ideas at her MOPS group! :) I need to call her and tell her to make these babies with them..she leads it & her last craft bombed hugely :) but these...now these are amazing! I wish it were flip flop weather!!! Thanks for sharing all your ideas instead of keeping them all to your self....you make us cool :)
ReplyDeleteHope you are good! I have been so busy too! Sending love!!! Lib!
Such an adorable idea....my daughters are going to love this. xoxoxo HUGS
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, something even I might try!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous and I love the fabric your chose ( -: Gorg as usual!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute. It really makes such a huge difference to them. I'm going to have to try this. :)
ReplyDeleteso so cute! love them:) good job girly! miss ya:)
ReplyDeleteI think using 1" pretty printed ribbon would work really well too. Then it wouldn't fray. You can get really nice ribbon in the craft and dollar stores inexpensively.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love! How do they wear?
ReplyDeleteHi, you haven't posted in a while and thought I'd check on you, hope everything is going well. Hugs ~ Mary
ReplyDeleteLove it love it soooooooooooooooooooooooo much. I am thinking to make some to give away for my nieces n my auntie.
ReplyDeletelove this!!! definitely going to do this :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I think I want several pairs of these!!
ReplyDeleteI started making these and now I can't stop! All of my kids teachers are getting these for "End of the Year" Gifts. I'm doing more for my niece's wedding. So much fun!! Thanks for the great idea!
ReplyDeleteLove this idea, I can't wait to do a pair , do you think if I cut the strip 1 1/2 " wide and ironed a 1/4" fold on both sides of the strip, I could then wrap it around without raw edges ?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely as long as you mod podge both sides. Then you wouldn't have frays! You are so smart! :)
DeleteThis is a great blog, usually i don't post comments on blogs but I would like to say that this post really forced me to do so!
ReplyDeleteI am in love with this idea. Such a great and affordable way to get a new look for our flip-flops. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletecute, I have done some like this already, but with regular tack glue, they held up pretty good ;) So do you modge pode the bottom and top of the fabric? Not sure I can follow what it's saying ;)
