Wed 9 Apr 2008
We’ve had a bit of an unusual suggestion from Estelle:
I once had these models made of my feet. They used them to generate orthotics for my flat feet. Now I have these cumbersome, heavy plaster-of-paris models sitting around at home… What can one do with them?
I don’t know how heavy they are but maybe paint them for funky bookends or doorstops?
Any other suggestions?

Vanish them and put them in the garden as an ornament! :)

put them in shoes that you don’t wear every day to keep them from loosing their form.

Adding to Elliots suggestion of ‘put them in shoes that you don’t wear every day to keep them from loosing their form’–they would also make a great shoe deodorizers too, since unsealed plaster absorbs moisture. I have a clothing closet in my master bathroom and this would be a great way to keep extra moisture out of our shoes. Thanks for the idea!

Make art! Decoupage pictures of shoes cut from catalogs all over the feet and hang them on the wall!

Use them to fill pot holes in your or a friends rural driveway.

I can see these feet as art too, hung all over a wall or in a display. That would be sooooo cool!

Make foot imprints on a homemade stepping stones, while plaster is wet.
Make bricks with foot marks in them , then build something with them, a shed, a wall, a fireplace.

Put them into oven with temperature 150-170 Celsius for few hours and you’ll get reusable plaster.
