Funky Flip Flops
Design & Instructions by Pattie Donham, Host of Craft Studios

Wake up those tired pillows with Tank Top Pillows! Add a few beads and a tassel, for some fun and funky accents to any room. 

Supplies:
Rubber Flip Flops 
PattieWack PomPom Tool, or 3-inch square of Heavy Cardboard
2 Cards of Adornaments™ (or 23 Yards of Yarn)
Terrifically Tacky Tape 1/4”
20 gauge Wire

Tools:
Wire Cutters
Scissors
Craft Knife


Steps:
1. If using the Adornaments™ fibers, pull out the fluffiest yarn on the card. Wrap yarn around the straps to cover, and hold the ends in place with tape. 
2. Create a 3-inch pompom by wrapping around the heavy cardboard, or by using the PattieWack PomPom Tool. Tie the middle with wire. Cut of the ends of the wire, and turn the ends back into the pompom.
3. Push the point of the craft knife into the center of the strap. Insert a 5-inch piece of wire through the hole. (This will keep the wire from slipping on the flip flops.) Lay the pompom over the wire, and twist the wire to hold the pompom in place. Cut of the ends of the wire, and turn the ends back into the pompom. 
4. Repeat all 3 steps for the other flip flop. Enjoy!
