Slippers....Literally!

Since it's now getting cooler and we have chilly hard wood floors, I ordered the boys some slippers to keep their feet warm. They were advertised as having suede soles for traction but when they arrived and I put them on the boys, their little feet slipped right out from under them and they looked like Bambi on ice! :( I remembered another MoM suggesting puff paint on the bottom of socks for traction so I headed to the craft store and bought some. It works! The boys love their slippers and they keep their feet nice and toasty!
Here's Jake modeling his slippers and a picture of the traction that I added to the soles.
Every time the boys wear their slippers I CRACK UP!
They look so funny to me!

Those are hilarious, I'm cracking up at them too! I feel like they should be wearing a short terry-cloth robe as well - lol. Good call on the puffy paint. I'm just jealous that you even have the need to cover up their feet and keep them toasty.

You did the puffy paint so professionally! Maybe Children's Place could hire you to puffy paint all the slippers? :) Very cute!
