http://sewgreen.blogspot.com/2007/07/recycled-slipper-tutorial.html I am going to give these a go. If successful I will make them for xmas preezies. There does'nt seem to be a pattern so I presume you draw round the foot.

Use any 3d fabric paint (they come in pens) or thick glues to draw a design on the bottom. It'll give the rubbery grip you want (like on slipper socks) and still be washable too.

That's another great idea, you could put their names or funny sayings on, Merry Xmas ect.
