"No Sock Day"



Yup....today is "No sock Day". A day devoted to not wearing socks. Think about it...if we skip wearing socks for a day, it reduces our laundry and therefore helps the environment. So take off those socks and free those little toes.

While we're on the subject of socks, we all know that our laundry appliances like to devour the occasional sock now and then, leaving us with a lot of "onesie socks". So here are a few ideas on how to use those odd socks.

If you have small children at home or even grand-children, make a sock puppet or sock doll {remember them?} They're easy to make and kids love them.

If you have a "little crawler", you can cut the toe off odd socks and slip them over the baby's knees for added protection when crawling.

Odd socks also make great IPod holders or put one over your hand and use it to dust.

If you have a feline friend, you can fill the toe with catnip then tie it closed and you have a Catnip Ball for your furry little buddy.

You can also fill the toe with salt and wipe your bathroom mirrors with it to keep them from fogging up. Or you can fill the sock with body powder and make your own "powder puff".

Whatever you do....just have fun and wiggle those toes.

Happy No-Sock Day!

Hey have a great mothers day and have a great time in NJ. Socks are always off when spring sets in and come back on when the snow flys. Also socks and dogs...our dog likes socks, the dirtier the better.
