Curse Technology, I'm Going Viking Instead.

Ok I promised to show you pictures, so what happens, the camera batteries die.  How bloody ironic, it heard me didn't it, lol.

So I will save my pictures of all my UFO's for tomorrow when I have purchased some batteries and instead show you something I came across thanks to the lovely, wonderful and very talented Mrs Flibble over on the Selfsufficientish Forum that I love. I want to marry this woman, her talent, perseverance, and dogged determination to be eco conscious and frugal inspires me at every turn!

She has made herself some wickedly fantastic Viking shoes using The Tutorial Here and they look like just the sort of thing that I have been looking for.

This is the pair made by the author of the tutorial, what a talented lady.

My poor feet suffer silently every day, having to hulk me around hither and thither, I should love them more than I do, especially as they do a fantastic job.  Hell, I wouldn't want to be my feet, but having just purchased some leather offcuts and some leather thonging from Fleabay I shall wait excitedly for my packages to arrive so I can make myself a couple of pairs of shoes.  I should have enough for at least two pairs, possibly three, but if not then I shall make some diddy ones for the Wee Man, as he like me has 'unusual feet'.

I shall leave you with a picture of my poor neglected feet and hopefully in a few weeks time they shall be happy dancing feet (OK I know that's pushing it).

I love how this photo looks like something out of a murder mystery.
