The stash guard is on duty (although he’s usually open to bribes of a bottle of Jack Daniels) and if that fails, the guard kitty from across the hall is on high alert. I, meanwhile, have packed my car and am somewhere in the middle of France now.
Anywho, before I left, I felt a sudden urge to gather up all the detritus that regularly hurls itself round my boot, kamikaze style, and stick it in the one place (not least because I have a fear that one day I’m going to open the boot and find the bottle of screen wash weeing on my foot). May I present to you, therefore, the boot tidy, in situ (sorry, should probably have taken a pic of it empty!):
The fabrics are home dec weight, that I can get at discount prices at my local Remnant Kings warehouse. You do kind of have to heft around enormously unwieldy rolls of fabric to get it to the cutting table, but it’s worth it! I had bought this fabric for another project entirely, but I’ve forgotten for what exactly, and I think it works rather well here…
So there you go, no more free range wellies for moi!
Bon voyage!
France is beautiful. I live on the border to France.
Greetings, Conni
You could fit my whole car in your boot! Or maybe a million pairs of shorts you ended up buying? I miss Kings Remnants we used to have one in Oxford…sighs wistfully. Have a lovely time in France.
I hope you're having a wonderful time!
have a lovely time !!
That is brilliant! Enjoy France 🙂
Have a great holiday. I think my car needs a child-tidy……can you design one?! Juliex
Brilliant idea Katy, every boot should have one! x
Good thinking, and nice work!
You'd make a great housewife xxx
Smashing idea. (o: Or should I say "non-smashing idea"?
Have fun on your travels.
Fabulous fabrics! I think I need something like that too!
You're a classic!! Who'd have thought of a boot tidy but now I'm wondering why we don't all have one. Have fun in France. I hope you're doing holiday posts.
Happy days from my holiday to yours.
Clever you. Enjoy your hols!
Have fun free wheeling it in France. Love the idea of a boot tidy . My car is a disgusting mess of junk (and not just the boot !)
You are clearly far too organized, awesome idea!
Nice one and such a good idea! Enjoy yourself:o))
Take care and have a good weekend.
Hugs Lyn x

What a good idea. I hope all your bits stay put and you have a wonderful holiday.

Heh, boot fabric for your boot tidy. 🙂 I hope you're having fun in France!
Fab idea, and great fabric! Have a fun holibob
Do I ever like that!! I wish my boot was a little more amenable to this sort of thing. As it is, I just threw a large plastic tote bin in there, and threw all the crap in it so it slides around instead of all my crap sliding individually.
