Here are some ideas for cute DIY flip flops decorations that you can take inspiration from

  • Braided straps – one of the easiest things to modify and DIY on flip flops are the straps. They’re quite easy to remove and there are a lot of things you can replace them with, too. if you’re looking for a cuter alternative to regular rubber flip flop straps, why not make your own? Braided straps are super cute and they’re easy to make, too! Plus, the things you’ll need to do this are, for sure, already inside your home so you won’t need to spend a dime to make yourself a brand new pair of flip flops!

  • Charm strap flip flops – looking for a way to really glam up your flip flops and make them stand out? Why not do a charm strap on them to give them a really fun and girly vibe? First, you’ll have to make what would seem like a really long charm bracelet with a bracelet chain and charms of your choice. Make sure it’s long enough to cover the straps of your flip flops. Once you’re done, sew them on to the rubber straps. Viola! You now have a pair of flip flops you can totally rock at the beach!
