Going Barefoot on a Summer Dream Getaway

This is one of those days when you leave the house, late for work, walk down five blocks to the bus stop under the scorching heat of the sun. For each stride you take, you feel a strong urge to plunge into the tempting waters of the beach or swimming pool. I'm no swimmer so I really don't have any other choice but stand by the gutter of the pool to watch people frolic. At times, I do regret having dropped my swimming lessons in one of the four P.E. subjects required in college.  Seated in the bus, feeling eeewww, a few minutes after finally landing on a vacant seat, I still continue to imagine the blue waters.

Bohemian Barefoot Sandals Showcase in LeBlanc

The varied reactions I saw among those who received a pair amused me so much. Two months after making the last pair, I ventured on another pair.  Here they are... cute and chic on newly pedicured nails! After crocheting the first pair, I told myself, "These are perfect for our team building event!!" And so I crocheted another pair using a different color... of course, my favorite!

Oh yes, we also enjoyed a soothing foot spa with pedicure and body massage as we had fun, bonding together, talking about anything under the sun--- EXCEPT work! :)  Look, these barefoot sandals can also be...

Crocheting Barefoot Sandals

Hey, hey, hey, have you crocheted anything like these before? Two pairs of barefoot sandals I made with some other gift items given away for the Christmas holiday season I found these cute barefoot sandal designs with patterns from Top 10 Free Crochet Patterns for Barefoot Sandals   and I wasn't able to resist experimenting using two of the patterns featured. Here are two pairs I made up-close... chic, aren't they? Bohemian Barefoot Sandals   and  Kitty's Barefoot Sandals A discovery it is for me, indeed! Wondering how these barefoot sandals are worn? Well, everybody who received these items as gifts all asked the same question (with raised eyebrows and a "What-are-these?" retort) hahaha! Here, take a closer look at each pair--- Now these are two persons wearing the same design--- the Bohemian barefoot sandals. You will never guess whose feet they are! Now you know what my favorite color is! The patterns are very ...
