Boxing

I don't often buy shoes, but when I do I save the boxes. This one is from a pair of slip-ons I just purchased.

They make great slow stitch project boxes. Everything I need for my Jane Eyre piece fits nicely inside. Once I start stitching the piece, I'll be able to roll it up and store it in the shoe box, too. It makes me very happy, as I seriously love the color orange. The fact that I'm reusing the shoe box to store recycled materials for my slow stitch project is a good thing, too.

I'll also have a chance to gloat a little more on how little I paid for my new shoes. They were regularly $23.99, marked down to $8.97 in the clearance section. Aside from the fact they fit my duck feet perfectly, I saved $15.02. :)
