BBQ party favors

Sprayed painted any kind of boot I could find and filled with hollyhocks I grew from seeds I collected in Santa Fe. Gave one to each guest at an annual BBQ party at our home.

    Put one hole in bottom of each boot and put pea gravel in to weigh them down. Lined our driveway with them to greet our guests.
