It seems fitting that this is my post to celebrate Tif Fussel's birthday - Happy Birthday, Tif! Firstly, the reason I didn't buy new shoes, was that I was spending a year along with Tif and many other bloggers, without buying new stuff. The Challenge of the Utmost Kind. But the shoes have finally been retired, and, like so many other bits of footwear round our house, have been turned into planters. I think they look fun and I enjoy still being able to see them. However, they have another second life (or I suppose, a third life...) on the internet now, thanks again to Tif. When she saw my post about the poor, dead old shoes going for a final walk with me through our town, she suggested the photos would go down well on the Flickr page for Shoegazing, which is run by Uppercase Magazine.

And how did the Challenge go, Floss? Did you enjoy it? Could you manage another year?
Shoegazing, lol, the internet never ceases to amaze me. I had no idea something like that existed. Sounds interesting though, will have to go and have a look.
Hi Floss - I love the planters!
I have tried to email you twice this month and they keep bouncing back!
What am I doing wrong????
So cool!

I heard about that challeng to late in the game, but I'd love to hear how it went by the way those are great shoes!
What a lovely idea, it would have been a shame never to see those shoes again.

Tell us more about your year of not buying new items. Maybe you have and I've missed it. I'm so curious.
That is the perfect new home for your faithful footwear. They took you many miles and now they can rest and be a good home to your beautiful plants.

Oh, Floss. I've had a rotten day and now the shoes are retired. Oh!
