(Bottle) Boot Shapers

This instructable allows a sad discarded water bottle to find happiness with a lonely old boot.

While boot shapers are made specifically to help maintain the support required for stored boots, they can get expensive - - especially if your collection is as large as mine!

Step 1 Gather up all unloved cowboy boots

Rather than allowing your boots to lose their shape and make a mess of precious storage space, it is a good idea to put something inside the boot shaft.

Should i even ask why you have so many cowboy boots. Good idea though.

If you don't, I will... Why do you have so many boots? Oh wait, author's a female from Colorado... Nevermind.

Hey, most of us Coloradans aren't that bad. (looks at own hat, boots, and box of belt buckles)... ... ... maybe this one is.

To answer everyone's inquiries - these are not a woman's personal footwear collection (that would be me tho!). This is part of the room decor of a western theme room - all hand-done and it's fabulous! From friend of kcli

So much better than finding "stuff" to stuff the boots! Most clever as always.
