Beads, pearls, and sequins also make great decorations. Glue these on in the same way. Zig-zag patterns and color scale patterns look striking on flip-flops.
Gold and silver glitter looks fantastic with all different colors of flip-flops. Sprinkle the glitter outside or over scrap paper to avoid making a mess inside.
Purchase hair clips from dollar stores or online. Consider using hair clips with flowers, animal figurines, or pom-poms on them. If your hair clip doesn’t have a clip, stick it on with superglue instead.
To add some extra sparkle, remove the center of the flower and glue a rhinestone into the empty space before gluing the flower onto the flip-flop. You can even cover the entirety of the flip-flop straps with smaller artificial flowers, gluing them on as you would rhinestones or buttons.
Any type of ribbon will work for this activity. Use a full spool of ribbon to ensure that you have enough to wrap around both your straps, especially if you’re decorating adult-sized flip-flops. You can add a cute touch to these flip-flops by tying a bow with any leftover ribbon and gluing it to the point where the two straps meet (between your big toe and the next toe. )
To completely cover the straps of your flip-flops, you will need about 20 strips.
Any secure knot will work for this task. Feel free to use your favorite.
Over time, the fabric ties will likely move and you will need to readjust them.
Cut the fabric on a slight diagonal angle to help prevent it from fraying.
You will need about 40 balloons to cover adult-sized flip-flops. If you don’t have any small balloons, use water balloons instead. Don’t blow the balloons up.
