Forget pimp my ride

This is absoluely Couture travel. When I dislocated my knee, out of pity my dear sweet husband James offered to paint my crutches pink. He knows how much I dislike crutches and just wanted to make it fun for me. Well he did it and of course he didn't stop there, he went into my glimmer mist and misted them to give the a leopardy glow.




I had to join in the fun and Bling'em and lace'em up too so after a little altered scrappin' I now have some totally customed, couture crutches!

We used very berry paint, Pink Bubble Gum and Tattered Rose Glimmer Mist, Prima say it in crystals (black), Fabri-Tac adhesive for an extra bond, and some flocked sheer fabric I had.

After you stop laughing, let me know what you think, James did a good job, didn't he!

thanks James, I love you!!!!

XOXO
