Favorite Finds: Barefoot Sandals

When I was a kid, my mom and I made barefoot sandals from ribbon and sewed little felt shapes and buttons on for decoration. I’d long since forgotten about them until recently when I was browsing the Free People website and saw these.  I got all excited and filled with inspiration! Of course I’m working on a pattern or two! ;)

Click on the pics if you’d like to buy. All except the first pair are from Etsy! :)

What do you think? Perfect Summer accessory? Would you make some if I posted a pattern?

    They are beautiful, I probably wouldn’t make one because I don’t go barefoot often but I know lots of people who would.

    I’m undecided by them, but they would make a great project to play with and then decide afterwards if to wear – so I say MAKE!
