Spring Creek Trail

I am not a nature girl. I like to observe nature from the inside behind large glass windows with a glass of something and being all comfortable. Buuuut I needed to get out and get some plein air painting done... so my dear husband offered that we go hiking. So we did. It was fun except for the terrifying bee that attacked me! (It wasn't that bad... I'm just a wuss). But anyway. Here are two of the fruits of my labor. The two that I actually like. It was pretty fun actually. Carrying them out without a wet panel box was a pain and a half... but otherwise, fun.

New shoes!

I received a lovely present the other day of new wedge shoes. They were from a second hand store and absolutely unique! Only problem was that someone left them in the sun and the white rubber started to look yellow. I can not scrub that off. Next best option... paint!
You can definitely see the difference. I just used normal everyday semi-gloss interior paint and it stuck really well to the rubber. I thought about sealing it with something but it's honestly just fine. It's not like I'm going to go splashing in puddles with these beautiful things.
Here is the finished paint job. Woo, fantastic! I wore them on Sunday and they are extremely comfortable. (Maybe because someone broke them in for me already!) Yay for life saving paint!!!
