Barefoot Holidays


For my little tribe, summer holidays are all about shoes off. Nothing says 'laid back relaxing mode' like bare feet on the grass, on the sand, in the house, absolutely everywhere really.

We thought it might be nice to make ourselves a little pair of 'barefoot' sandals to jazz ourselves up every now and then.....you know like when your heading out to your friends for a play!

All you'll need to make your own pair is some beads and some string! (Just make sure the bead whole is large enough to fit two pieces of string at the same time)



Here's how......
Choose your beads and lay them out in the pattern you would like them seen in. This should measure the same as your toe to ankle length.
Cut a length of string about 80cm long, fold it in half and tie off a small loop at the bottom (this should be small enough to place over your second toe)


Next you simply thread your beads onto both string ends and tie another knot to make sure they don't fall off.


And that's it!
They can be as easy or as tricky as you like. By googling 'barefoot sandals' you'll see what I mean!



Anyway, we're off to get some sun on our toes.....happy holidays x
