Perfect Gift During Times of Financial Hardship

My Dear Friends and Family,

This year, funds are low and money is tight. As a direct result, I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as Christmas gifts.

Please let me know your sizes. In the event that you too are strapped for the holidays with no extra money, I’ve included the instructions below if you'd like to make some yourself, instead of re-gifting the ones I make you.


How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:
You'll 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, Christmas decor or other cute things, depending on the time of year (money will probably still be tight at Easter!).

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: Light, Regular, and Get out the Sand Bags.

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