I present to you… the boot! This boot has been one of the most frustrating but satisfying things I have made. My Aunt Chris asked me to make a tumbler into a boot…. I was so excited to make this tumbler I didn’t realize what I was taking on.. I started it like any other tumbler I have made…. I went live on TikTok… then when I realized that I couldn’t complete this boot on one live I was super discouraged. I have made cows & I have made tarantulas… I have made so many 3d tumblers but this boot has me stumped for some reason. I was in the verge of giving up and ready to refund my Aunty because I didn’t want to disappoint anyone especially when I was trying so hard to get it there by Christmas. Well while I was torturing myself in my head and ready to be defeated by footwear, I had so many people who backed me up and told me I could do this. This one cup had slowly chipped away at my confidence. Luckily I had friends who made sure I never forgot that I could do it. I want to say a huge thank you to my bestie Amanda for talking me off the ledge of quittersville. She came and hung out with me and helped me with other projects and cleaning my garage while I worked on the boot. Thank you to my auntie Chris for never letting me give up. Thank you Sarina for letting me use your boot as inspiration! Thank you to everyone who helped me💜💜💜💜💜 I have the best people who support me in my art! Long story short… don’t give up! Just find a group of people who support you and believe in you.💜💜💜💜💜
