Summer has reached its midpoint on northern hemisphere, and one of the most popular summer shoes are flip-flops. They are cheap and last for one summer, plus they have excellent air-conditioning. They are sold in all colours and sizes, take your pick. After you\u2019ve picked your favourite pair, you can make it even better-looking with some beads. It\u2019s easy!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll do:
\nTake two equally long threads, about 45 cm or 1,5 ft. I\u2019m using grey here because it goes together well with so many colours. Then you\u2019ll need two kinds of beads, small and smaller. I used 5 mm bicones (17 pieces) and size 11 beads (28 pieces).
\nTake the threads, and measure 15 cm or 6 inches from tail. Tie the threads together with two knots, and leave the tails hanging. I call the technique \u201c8-loop\u201d because it looks a bit like endless number 8.
\nNow you have two options. You can either use two beading needles or do it without them, but it\u2019s easier with needles.<\/p>\n

\"tutorial\"<\/a>\"lace<\/a>
\nStep 1. Place 2 beads, 1 bicone, and 1 bead to each thread.<\/p>\n

Step 2. Take 1 bicone and pass the threads from opposite sides through the bicone.<\/p>\n

Step 3. Place 1 bead, 1 bicone and 1 bead to each thread, and repeat step 2.
\nRepeat step 3 until you reached the desired length.<\/p>\n

Step 4. Place 1 bead, 1 bicone and 2 beads to each thread. Tie the threads together with two knots.<\/p>\n

You can make the \u201cinstallation\u201d even more secure by adding some glue to hold everything together. I won\u2019t promise that it\u2019ll last forever but the \u201clife expectancy\u201d of flip-flops isn\u2019t usually that long anyway.<\/p>\n

\"apply<\/a><\/p>\n

\"secure<\/a>

Secure with tape, and let it dry over night.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"cut<\/a>

On the next day, tie loose threads, cut extras. and remove the tape.<\/p><\/div>\n


\n<\/a>\"finished\"<\/a>
\n<\/a>
\nNow you have the coolest flip-flops to show off! With this technique, you can make a matching bracelet or necklace if you like.
