Necessity is the Mother of Invention

I had thought that I wouldn't be creating anything again this week due to this weekend's upcoming wedding for Natalie and Jeremy. However, when I looked this morning for the shoes I normally wear to work weddings in, I came up empty. Had the weather cooperated, I had black sandals, however since we now seem to be dancing between autumn's cold/wet and late summer's sunshine, I neede something more substantial with which to cover my tooties.

Being the resourceful woman I am, I dug out a pair of comfortable flats that I could depend on wearing without the distraction of pain for the 10-12 hours I plan to follow the above mentioned bride. This particular pair of flats were currently a dark shade of blue violet, but they had begun life in a shade of summer white. From that they were transformed into a green pattern I needed to match a summer dress. And then, you guessed it, into their current shade.

I determined my need for black shoes presently outweighed my use for the blue violet. So I pulled out my trusty sharpie...



New Black Shoes!

What did you create this week?
