Make your own embellished sandals

What you'll need:

-A pair of flip-flops/sandals in your size

-Gemstones, beads or buttons

-A hot glue gun and glue sticks

-A pair of tweezers

How to do it:

- Arrange the beads / stones / buttons onto your shoes before sticking them down so that you have a good idea of how you plan to design them and how they will look. Lay them down on the floor in the correct pattern so that it is easy to pick them up and glue them correctly.

- Turn on the glue gun. This glue will get cool very quickly, so work in small time increments.

- Start gluing the beads / buttons / stones in the centre of the strap (i.e. where it meets between your toes). This will guarantee symmetry when the job is done.

- Apply a few drops of glue to the strap and stick the stones / buttons / beads down firmly.

- Be creative and experiment with combinations, perhaps adding feathers or shells as features.

- Make sure you get plenty of photographs of your bejewelled feet!
