Tempting, very tempting...

Firstly, it's tempting to leave my Silly Little Question up a bit longer and see how many more replies it elicits! (27 at the moment!) As Kali says, 'aren't we such a bunch of quirky gals?'

Secondly, so many of your suggestions are tempting that I got into a bit of a tiz last night trying to make some decisions!

I'm tempted by Kate's suggestion to use a base of black net and embellish it - practical yet exciting. However, I don't have any black net...
I'm very tempted by Jeannette's offer to crochet me a flower, but unfortunately, I think that the position of the hole makes it the wrong place for a 3D embellishment. Thanks so much for the offer though, Jeannette. You know that I could never make one myself...
But as this big bag of felt indicates, Pomona's suggestion has the happy coincidence of being both practical and attainable, as I do indeed have a Big Bag of Felt! I found it in a drawer in my parents' house, and the general feeling is that it belonged to my grandmother. How good to be a Third Generation Hoarder...
j
So, thank you all for your great suggestions, and do feel free to add more if you want to make the post a real record-breaker for comments! Otherwise, watch this space and I'll create something with colourful felt, almost certainly following your 'beads and flowers' suggestions, which so appealed to me.

I can't wait to see what you do- all the options look very pretty. Maybe you need hundreds of slippers? ;)
