...holiday gift-giving...

...is going to be rough on many people. With our current economy, Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for all of my friends.

This gift is practical and affordable, and solves that age-old worry...am I getting something that the recipient already owns? I think it's a splendid idea--you can customize for different holidays, or for birthdays or other occasions.

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.

Directions: 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.

This is a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the Nifty slippers for yourself.
