Fabric Decorated Flip Flops

By Cindy Hopper

Kids will love having the most fashionable flip flops for summer with this quick and easy flip flop craft. These decorated flip flops can easily be customized to match summer outfits. This would also be a fun group summer craft.

Decorated Flip Flop Supplies

Fabric scraps
scissors
a pair of flip flops

Cut fabric into 1/2 inch strips about 6 inches long. You will need about 20 strips. The strips only need to be long enough to tie onto the strap of the flip flop. Some little hands might be able to have shorter strips, while others might need longer strips to make the tie.

Tie each strip around the strap of the flip flop.

Make sure each strip is tightly tied.

Continue tying strips closely together along the strap until the strap is completely hidden.

My daughter trimmed the ends of the fabric to make them shorter.

How cute are those! We found our flip flops at Michael’s Arts and Crafts for $1.00.
