Glue the Line to the Flip-Flop

Beaded Flip-Flops

Wrap the line around, each time adding a bead.

Poke an 1/8" to a 1/4" of the fishing line into the crack where the plastic thong is attached to the bottom of the flip-flop. The more fishing line you poke in, the more secure your beads will be.

Squeeze a small dab of hot glue into the hole. Let the glue dry, and then inspect how well it holds by giving the fishing line a soft tug. If it comes loose, try again, this time pushing more fishing line in.

When your fishing line is glued, begin to thread the beads.
