As mentioned, everything we used in the sample project we found at our local dollar store.

Directions:

1. Begin by cutting a 4 inch length of ribbon.  Bend it in half and secure the seam with glue.
2. Add a dab of glue to the ribbon and press it to the band of the flip flop. Hold in place until dry and secure.

3. You can now add another ribbon if you wish, or move on to step 4.
4. Snip the head of your silk flower so as little stem remains as possible.
5. Add a few generous dabs of glue to the underside of the flower petals. Press to the flip flop band and hold in place until dry and secure.
6. If you want a little more flare on your flip flops, cut additional ribbon, add glue, and press it under the blooms.

    So cute but my flowers won’t stay glued to the flip flop. Keep popping off. I might not using ribbon. Could that be why?

    I love these! It would be easy and cheap enough to coordinate a pair of these for everything in my wardrobe.

    I’m dropping by from the I Gotta Create link party. These flip flops are so gorgeous! The flower and ribbon are so pretty — and I love the color yellow. I’ve put this on my gotta-make-NOW list!

    I’m trying to grow my own link party and I invite you to share this (and 2-3 more) link. You can find it at Grandma Ideas Sharing Time Link Party at http://grandmaideas.com. I think that my readers would absolutely love this idea!

    All the best,
    Nina
