Tired of slipping on hard wood floors, but too cold to go barefoot? Make some of your favorite socks slip-proof.

You Will Need

  • Comfortable socks
  • Two pieces cardboard
  • Fabric paint

Step 1: Prepare socks

Wash and dry your socks.

Step 2: Make template

Trace each foot on a separate piece of cardboard and cut out your print.

Step 3: Insert pattern

Insert a cardboard template into each sock and smooth the fabric over the template to create a flat surface.

Step 4: Paint sock

Paint a pattern with fabric paint on your socks.

Wavy lines, dots, or zigzags are the simplest designs to create.

Step 5: Dry socks

Dry the socks according to paint instructions. Now you can wander around the house in stocking feet with no fear of slipping.
