DIY Friday: boot storage





So this post is for the organizing at heart folks! This is for storing your boots... You know the boots you wear in autumn and winter. and with the weather we've been receiving, in the spring too!

The easiest way to store them without letting them lay limp & lifeless is to use pool noodles. Yes, you heard me correctly, pool noodles! And what better time than the beginning of pool season to stock up? ( I bought mine at Target for $3.99 ea.) and I used 1 for two pair. It's super easy & inexpensive to take car of your boots! I was just in The Container Store the other day & they had boot stands that where anywhere from $15-$25 a pair. And I just bought a pool noodle for $3.99, cut it & and used it for two pair of boots! Praise Him!

After doing this, I can actually hear my boots saying thank you and we love you Ryn, can't wait for fall! ; )

So comment below when you try this!!! I'd love to hear if you've tried it yet!

What you'll need for your boots to say thank you:
Pool noodles (depends on how many boots you have)
Knife ( I used a plastic lettuce knife, but a bread knife would work just as well)
Boots
Marker



Get your boots & noodles!

Plastic Lettuce Knife

Marker (Le pen is what I used)

You'll want to measure the noodle inside of the boot.

Make sure it goes all the way down to the heel.

Mark the noodle where it hits or an inch below the top of boot with the marker. 

Cut the noodle where you marked it.

Measure the cut noodle with rest of the noodle and mark it and cut.

There's the limp & lifeless boots.

And here are the full of life & full noodles boots I just love!

Perfect!

 
 
 
By the way, This is the best stuff to revive you r leather shoes & boots! I'm sure you can find this at walmart or target... This one is from Nordstrom Rack, It was about $4.95 I think.

Organizing a New Year : )

So I may have started something before I knew how to finish it! My studio is a chaotic mess! I'm trying to clean and organize it but it seems as if the mess is getting bigger! Have you ever felt like that?!
I needed to take a break and get my mind on something different! While cleaning I've had on NeedToBreathe, to make it a livelier task! But still slightly overwhelming! Before I had a studio, my creative corner was in my bedroom! Not the smartest choice! But so Thankful for an extra room now : ) Not sure why I started a feat like this when I'm taking a trip in a few days... But I decided to attack this project early on... : / It's January right? The organizing month! I can do this! : )

I may have to design some business cards first... You know.. to pump up myself for more organizing ; )

All this to say Happy New Year!!! May each day bring us unspeakable joy & may this year flourish with opportunities, expectancy & grace! Let me remind you, The Lord is always Faithful! If it's seems struggling this year, remember He's always faithful! I always seem to think of like a game show on TV where you're supposed to earn so much money but when you reach it, The big-wigs match your money and double it! The Lord is the same way! He will match what you are believing for and double it! He wants to bless ya! Love y'all! - Ryn






Lord help meh! (He will) I'm ready to get back into making clothes and jewels : ) and selling them too!
