Slippery Sunday - Comfy slippers

Do you wear special slippers for around the house?  When we were growing up we have what we called "chinelas" only to be worn as house slippers.  In Canada when you visit someone at their home, it was automatic, we take off our shoes or other footwear.  In the USA, it seems like people keep their shoes on unless of course you see shoes around the front door.  This past couple of days, I was shopping for some house slippers for my daughter and favorite SIL. Since it's just some type of footwear to be worn at home, it was not a requirement to have a designer kind.  Here's a collection of photos I took during the slipper shopping task.

Airport slippers, I slip this on after I take off my sandals or shoes

Guest slippers/flip flip - for our guests who forgot to bring house slippers.

Hotel slippers - the kind that is free when you stay in a nice room

These are for my favorite SIL - each one has a different type of sole

This one is for my daughter - soft and fluffy and has those special dots for traction

Which Wednesday - Small and cute

When you see something that are small and tiny, most of the comment you will get is Oh it's so cute.  Yesterday I finished an adult version of those baby slippers I made a few weeks ago.  I know you will agree with me that I should just keep sewing the baby version.  Here's why.
Cute baby slippers
Not so cute slippers
It is made of the same fabric and similar pattern but for some reason it loses it's cuteness when it is a larger version.  The only benefit of this trial slipper is that I can use it on our vacation as my bedroom slippers.
