Our conservatory/back porch suffers from our constant in and out from the garden. Shoes and boots are slid off and abandoned, with mud or dust tracking everywhere. I have tried cardboard, newspaper, plastic bags but they get kick or blown away. So when we arrived in Scotland and saw this at our holiday cottage - WOW!
A simple very large plant watering tray! ~Why did I not think of that before?
Less than £10 in garden centres - or worth scrubbing the one currently hosting 3 dead cucumbers in the greenhouse!
Super holiday cottage by the way - a wood chalet that is highly insulated and is very warm and cosy even in poor weather in mountains of Skye! Great for our anniversary trip (thanks for the good wishes from other bloggers)
We use one of those trays for some of our shoes - comes in very handy for wellies as well.
ReplyDeleteThe cabin looks very cosy.
Such a good idea. I have this problem in my porch. This looks like an excellent solution to muddy work boots.
ReplyDeleteSimple but excellent idea. Enjoy your anniversary trip to Skye. Catriona
ReplyDeleteMaybe because we can have such terrible weather in winter everyone has boot trays here. They are made of rubber and are very cheap, about $10.00.
ReplyDeleteI use one similar under the kitty litter box. Works great so I imagine it will work similarly well as a boot tray.
ReplyDeleteThat cottage looks wonderfully cozy.
God bless.
What a great idea for the tray. The cottage looks lovely and cosy. X
