here we share you how to make an unique recycled t-shirt sandals. enjoy it guys!

Materials:
– Flip flops (remember, used flip flops work great, and are more eco-friendly)
– Scissors
– Piece of chalk or marker
– Craft knife
– Heavy duty waterproof glue
– Recycled T-shirts
– Screw driver
– Flat butter knife or thin plastic ruler to stuff fabric into the soles
– Clamps (or heavy books)

Make:
1. Cut the rubber bits at the point where they come through the sole. Leave just the “plug” between your toes in place (the one that holds the foot down: glue that in place). Remove the other two in the rear.

2. These holes will be used for the ties around your ankles.

3. Take a long strip (2 inches wide and long enough to wrap around you ankle) and knot one end. Thread it through the hole with a screwdriver and glue in place. The knot will nestle nicely into the hole from the plug you’ve removed, so you’re not walking on it.

4. Make 2 horizontal slits on each side of the the foam sole of your flip flop.

5. Cut 2 strips of T-shirts 3″ wide and approximately 8″ long. You will need to experiment a bit. Every foot is different and the T-shirt material has a different stretch.

6. Stuff the strips into the incision you’ve made crossing them over the foot. I used a protractor because that was the only thing I could find in my creative frenzy.

7. When you are happy with the look, glue the strips in place, following the direction for the glue you are using. Be sure to use a waterproof glue.

8. Clamp together and wait an hour or two, until the glue is really dry. You’ve done it.

There are a million variations on this theme:
- Instead of 2 incisions at each side, you can also make a longer incision and squeeze a wider strip into the gap. Or, squeeze 1 separate strip into each gap and tie them into a bow across your foot.
- You could decorate the shoe with flowers, buttons, brooches.
- Use different colors for the two strips, maybe really bold primary ones.
- Try a different material forthe sole.
