The Problems with Tiny Shoes
Written on February 25, 2015 at 1:00 pm by MichelleFiled under: Musings
As mentioned in January, I was temporarily relocating for part 1 of my practicum this term. I brought two dolls with me, what I consider to be a small selection of clothes, and some shoes. Now that the practicum is almost over, I’ve started the process of packing things up to get ready for the move back home.
All the clothes are accounted for, both dolls are accounted for – my current problem is the shoes. I’ve seem to be misplaced one of the white vintage squishy boots (featured in the photo below) somewhere in the apartment…
Eden and Primrose are both wearing Kult of Kulta, vintage squishy
Barbie boots, and travel in Sew Pixie carry bags.
I’m not entirely sure how, because I took care to make sure to put shoes when not in use into a zipped bag. But right now Prim is hanging out without a boot on. I should probably swap them out with something else to spare her the indecency… at least I didn’t photograph her with only one boot on!
If you were a missing boot, where would you be?
UPDATE: I FOUND THE BOOT.
It was somehow inside of my pillow case. Not on the side where I lay my head, but the underside. How it got in there, I have no idea.
If I am on holidays I keep them in a little dolly suitcase. At home I always find them under things or stuck in dresses.
When I go out with them I find them loose in my carriers or in my bags.
I keep mine in plastic tackle boxes used for fishing lures. Then I have a ziplock bag that I put them in as soon as I take them off to be sorted later.
Have you checked inside the cushions of all your seats? I mean really deep? That’s where one of my dolly’s missing shoes ended up one time.
Perhaps it fell into the bottom of a purse or bag? I find that sometimes things get knocked into the strangest of places…
Not much help, but I once found one in the fridge. Yep, the fridge. ^_^
Have you used a vacuum lately? I was using the attachment to vaccum around my sewing machine and despite being careful, it sucked up the small lint brush I keep on the machine bed. I didn’t realize it and looked everywhere figuring it was gone until I remembered using the vacuum and there it was where the hose empties into the bag.

Haha, they sometimes end up in the strangest places!
