Twenty-two years ago, this little guy stole my heart.
All 7 lbs. 1 oz. of him.
And now, 22 years later, he’s made me a grandma and my heart is stolen all over again.
I’m planning a baby shower for little Shalom that will be held this Saturday and yesterday I did a super simple project that I want to share with you.
Hardly any time was involved, it’s easy and low-cost. All you will need is a pair of rubber boots that are ready to be thrown away.
Like these.
One of the boots has a 4″ crack where water can come in instead of keeping it out so it was perfect for this project.
The first thing I did was put masking tape around the heel but I don’t know if that’s so important. I’m thinking I should have just painted everything.
Then it was time to give it a new look and that was accomplished by taking a $4 can of spray paint and giving it a new coat.
And here they are now.
I’m planning on using them Saturday since my theme is “Showering with Love”.
It’s fun to think of ways of re-purposing items. The simplest things can be some of the most fun.
Love what spray paint can do! I bought a girly rain boot at a garage sale to put flowers in but now I’ll have to look for black ones. :). I’m sure it’s fun planning her shower 🙂

Yes, it is fun. I’m pretty excited to see it all come together.
Did you put soil in your boots for the flowers?
