Do you know how to make swarovski crystal encrusted flip flops for summer?

I would like to start making these as a craft at home and need detailed instructions, does anyone know or have a link to where I can find these detailed instructions, or is there a book out there that I can purchase?|||Buy the flat back crystals and cover the strap on the flip-flops with that super sticky red craft tape that has adhesive on both sides. Then use long handled jewelry tweezers to pick up and apply the crystals to the other side of the tape. No mess like with hot glue.|||Hobby Lobby (my favorite store) has a lot of books on jewelry making, and other things to do with crystals and beads. They usually have a whole rack of books in the bead isle, or just at the end of it. Another good store for hobby books is Michael's. However, I have seen it done two different ways. You can use hot glue to glue them on the straps. Or, use a heavy needle and thread (or fine fishing line) and sew them onto the straps.
