When we first retired, DH asked what is something I have wanted for myself that would make my days more enjoyable.
He was surprised when I answered rain boots. Both of us searched online to see what was available and when I saw YELLOW suddenly childhood memories came flooding in.
I had a yellow slicker with clip-on hood and matching boots. All my brothers also had these, only their boots were boring black. I spent countless hours exploring and splashing in these and was very sad when I outgrew them. I could use the larger slickers as the boys also grew - but the yellow boots were donated elsewhere.
DH promptly ordered the boots for me, and they are handy for yard work and when loading our boat on shallow ramps. They make me smile while keeping my feet warm & dry.

What a superb design and such a happy story! Love your story about your yellow rain boots .... so glad you have another pair to enjoy! Love your gingham panel, little seed packet, silver watering can, raindrop background and those wonderful yellow boots!
