Make fancy flip flops

When go searching for flip flop sandals, you can get the complete plain Jane variety for as little as $.99 a pair, or be tempted by the fancier versions of these popular sandals that can easily cost $10 or more. But why not make your own fancy flip-flops out of the inexpensive pair?

One of the simplest ways to transform your plain flip-flops is simply by purchasing two flowers from the craft store. Single stems often have multiple flowers so you only need to buy one stem. Then take your glue gun and glue a flower to the cross-section on the top of each sandal. And if you have extra leftover flowers, you can easily make a barrette, or attach one to a headband with your glue gun.

Other ways you can dress up flip flop sandals include gluing inexpensive rhinestones, little seashells, or even buttons and beads. A quick visit to your local craft store can reveal a whole lot of ideas for things that can be glued to your sandals.
