3 Unique & Easy Ways to Make Cute DIY Slides For Summer
DIY slides are an amazing addition to have for your summer style! I’m going to show you three ways that you can transform your slide shoes to make them look cute and stylish.
This is a super-fun and creative project, and I can’t wait to show you the results. So, without further ado, let’s get right into it!
Tools and materials:
- Plastic flowers
- Hot glue gun
- Slides
- Adhesive rhinestones
- Spray paint
- Cardboard
DIY flower slides
So, I got these flowers from the $1 store, and they are so pretty! Simply pick out each flower from each stem. As you can see, I’m using a wide variety of flowers of different colors and sizes.
The white ones didn’t have stems, so I had to cut them off as opposed to pulling them off.
The next step is to glue the flowers onto your slides using a hot glue gun.
There’s no particular order to glue these flowers; you can do any design you wish! I started with the big ones and worked my way to the smaller flowers.
If you want a medium-sized flower, you can cut the larger one and take off two layers.
There you have it; you now have a pair of DIY flower slides. I think it’s such a beautiful design and truly unique, too.
DIY rhinestone slides
If you’re all about the dazzle, then these DIY slides are for you. I got these adhesive gems that I’ll be sticking onto my white slides.
Simply stick each adhesive row to your slides.
Then, press it down, so it sticks.
You can use your glue gun to make sure they stick on well. I did burn my fingers, so please take extra precautions when working with the glue gun!
Stick another line right at the bottom to have a cleaner finish.
Bling, bling! These DIY rhinestone slides are super cute, don’t you think?
DIY painted slides
So, for the next DIY slide design, I first wanted to use the hydro dip method, but it did not work! My slides must have been too foamy because the color did not catch on at all.
I went for the next best thing and decided to spray paint them.
I love spray painting, and I thought this would be fun! I went for a blue theme and sprayed my shoes in all shades of blue.
I also used a rose gold accent color. Keep spraying the paint until you’re happy with your creation. Leave the slides out to dry before wearing them.
You have yourself a pair of painted slides for the summer! I love how these turned out.
