  Step 1

  Gather your awesome materials!

• 

  Step 2

  Cut your scarf or fabric into 4 pieces, each approx. 40 inches wide and approx. 72 inches long

• 

  Step 3

  Cut the straps off your flip flops and chuck em away!

• 

  Step 4

  Cut a V-shape into the top of all four scarf pieces.

• 

  Step 5

  Take two of your scarf pieces by the top and push them both together through the top toe hole in each flip flop.

• 

  Step 6

  Tie together in a big double knot and pull tight to fit inside the hole on the underside of the sole.

• 

  Step 7

  Cut the ends and squash your knot into the hole. Secure using glue gun if you have one.

• 

  Step 8

  Turn over and tie a knot approx. one inch off the base (this is to keep your toes snug!) Try putting your feet in to see how they fit.

• 

  Step 9

  Tie another knot, roughly one inch higher than the first knot.

• 

  Step 10

  Pop the ends through each rear hole…

• 

  Step 11

  …and put your feet in to make sure you get the right size. Pull tight (they will get slacker over time), do a double knot each end then snip and secure as before.

• 

  Step 12

  …and voila, marvel at your flip flop making skills! Now all you need is a beach and a pina colada to go with them. Enjoy! :)

They look so nice and summery. Also, for flip flops they have to be comfortable if you put nice fabric on them, right? I will be surely trying this for summer!
