  Step 1

  The first thing you need to do is decide what kind of look you want for your sandals. I knew I wanted to do three flowers that were about 2″ each for my t-strap sandals and one larger flower with a few smaller flowers for my thong sandals. For the t straps, I bought a 1/2 yard strip of chiffon flowers that were 2.5″ wide. They come on a netting and you can cut them apart from each other. For the thongs, I bought a half yard of 1.5″ chiffon flowers and two 2.5″ fabric flowers. My shoe size is a 10. You may need less if your shoe size is smaller.

  Step 2

  Once you have all your supplies gathered, cut your flowers apart on your netting strips. Decide how many flowers fit best on your shoes. Grab your felt and cut circles of felt a little smaller than the width of each of your flowers for your thong style sandals. For the t-straps, cut a strip that is a little smaller than the width of your flowers by a little longer than the length of your t strap piece.

• 

  Step 3

  Open your fabritac. For the thongs, run a little glue onto the top of your left strap on the left shoe and right strap on the right shoe, and then a little glue onto the other strap. Next, press your large flower onto the left strap on the left shoe so it sits right before the middle of the thong part that sits between your toes.

• 

  Step 4

  Press a couple of the smaller flowers next to the large flower on the left strap of the left sandal and right strap of the right sandal. Then press another smaller flower onto the other strap next to the larger flower so it sits right before the split.

• 

  Step 5

  For the t-strap run a bead of glue down the t-strap piece. Now, trim up your middle flower and then press your three flowers onto the t-strap piece starting with the one over the end where your toes go.

• 

  Step 6

  Now you need to glue the felt pieces onto the back sides of your flowers. Run glue onto the felt circles for your thong sandals.

• 

  Step 7

  Press each circle onto the back side of each of the flowers it corresponds with. You will be sandwiching the strap in between the felt circle and the flower. Be sure to press them together very well. Repeat with all the other flowers on your thongs.

• 

  Step 8

  For the t-straps, run glue onto the felt strips.

• 

  Step 9

  Press the glue side of the strips onto the back side of the flowers sandwiching the strap in between.

• 

  Step 10

  Make sure to press the strip firmly in place paying careful attention to the area where the toes sit.

• 

  Step 11

  Set your sandals aside to dry. Once the glue is fully cured they are ready to wear!
