Project

I have a love/hate relationship with hardwood floors.

Yes they are easier to clean and don't stain the same way carpet does... I love that.

What I don't like is walking on hardwood floors... specifically in bare feet. It hurts my heels and I feel like it does damage to my feet. So, I wear socks.

Enter my son... I could just put socks on him but as someone who does NOT fully comprehend his limitations nor does he have a firm grasp on the evils of gravity... socks can be more of a hindrance then help.

Somewhere along the way I heard a tip that involved puff painting your childs socks and...


that is just what I did. Here are a good portion of Chase's socks with his very own 'mamah' creations. Artistically amazing, I know.

Hopefully this will help with my quest to have socked feet without fear of slipping/falling.

we had the same problem.....Frodo kept wiping out with socks on, so we let him run barefoot....
