Fab Festive Footwear


boot from a stick4

Funny what sticks out at you sometimes, eh?

Take dead branches for instance. Trimmed just so, you get these nifty little boots...



Which, when painted up...


Drilled, decorated and hung...


Make some fairly fab festive footwear!



Seen anything interesting in your fallen leaves or dead wood lately? If so, I'd love to hear about it!

Have yourself a great day now. I'll be back on Wednesday. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to all!
