Graffiti Trainers



It is much to hot to sew today! But going with my boy theme, here are some pics of my sons trainers I revamped with some graffiti.






Yesterday was spent at the beach with my family. I wanted to take lots of pictures to go into my daughters golden box, which I will need for September when she starts school. A golden box is a box kept at school for your little ones, so that if they miss you or are upset they can get some comfort from going through all the things in the box that remind them of you. I need ideas, so far I have her nunu which is her Kalloo comforter bear she has carried around with her since she was a baby. My next idea is photographs- I love this one:



This is Mya screaming with joy as the waves of cold water lap at her feet.

Do you have any ideas I can use as to what to put in this box? I really am stuck (short of packing it full of sweets which I know would always cheer her up!)

  1. Love your graffiti boots! My nephew would love these! Did you just use fabric pens?

    Think the golden box thing is a lovely idea (I dont have kids so didnt realise that schools did this) If I think of any ideas I will post again! -PootleFlump x
