Dear Friends, Somewhat embarrassing to admit, I’m not getting an annual bonus and Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You’ll most likely agree that it’s a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I’ve included the instructions below. How to make bedroom slippers out of Maxi Pads: You need four Maxi Pads to make a pair. Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part. The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top. Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part. Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers (this is most aesthetically appealing), etc. These slippers are: * Soft and Hygienic * Non-slip grip strips on the soles * Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh * No more bending over to mop up spills * Disposable and biodegradable * Environmentally safe * Three convenient sizes: 1. Regular, 2. Light and 3. Get out the Sand Bags. I’ve attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself... Awaiting your response. It’s crucial that I get the right size for each one of you... ![]() What is bought is cheaper than a gift. - Portuguese Proverb Conceit is God's gift to little men. - Bruce Barton Gladly accept the gifts of the present hour. - Horace Every problem has a gift for you in its hands. - Richard Bach A book is a gift you can open again and again. - Garrison Keillor I get really grinchy right up until Christmas morning. - Dan Aykroyd The gods bestowed on him the gift of perpetual old age. - Oscar Wilde Mankind's greatest gift is that we have free choice. - Elisabeth Kubler-Ross Halloween starts earlier and earlier, just like Christmas. - Robert Englund Forgiveness is a gift of high value.
