I beaded the straps of these flip flops last year. I wore them once and they have been in my closet since. They are very pretty, if I do say so myself.
But, they hurt like $*^%$#&*. And apparently I am too lazy to fix them. Maybe I will frame them for an art piece.
I wrapped the wire and beads to cover the whole strap. I should have stopped partway up because when I walk and the bottom of my foot steps on the wire and beads...yeeeeeeeeow! It is worse than walking across gravel barefooted.
So, I urge you to make a gorgeous pair of beaded flip flops like these, but STOP before the end. I think you have to try them on and see where you need to stop.

What if you used felt, or even fake fur, and glued it to the bottom? And this is the sort of thing I would have done!
ReplyDeleteThat could be a good idea, Lori. Maybe I will give it a try!
