There is some glue in Australia called multigrip.. but you could probebly use just about most contact adhesives. I also used abit of superglue around the edges to hold them on super tight..

Epoxy will probably have the same effect. Or you could do this: http://www.nicolehindes.com/2007/09/18/making-slippers-non-slip/

Thankyou :). It was a fringed blanket, so I just kept the fringe..

These are so cute! They certainly do not look home made.
