A quick note about Christmas

My dear friends and family,

Somewhat embarrassing to admit but Christmas will be 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.

I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself....



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.

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.

Awaiting your response. It's crucial that I get the right size for each
one of you.

Happy Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ummm, size 6 but you can make it a bit larger just for the ease and comfort. Will it come with the stay dry liner as well, in case I'd like to go puddle jumping?

Looks like I better make my own since you'll be busy making them for a few other people.

can you seal them in condoms to make them waterproof.. it gets kinda wet and nasty here in Ohio. I'd like a nice new pair of Tony Stewart colors since I have to change my whole wardrobe!

Although the fact that it comes in "sand bag" size cracked me up!
