About 1 teaspoon of onion powder.

Basically so many of the rural lifestyle scenarios that we face out here everyday.But that gets messy.

My hunter boots aren’t the perfect, shiny, Pinteresty outfit boots anymore, but I do need to keep them clean so I can run into town when I need to without looking like a crazy mud-monster..So here’s how I clean them!.First start out with some hunter boots that have seen a nice afternoon of weed-pulling, or toddler-chasing just after a rain storm.

OK, so these weren’t that caked in mud at the time that I took these pictures, but trust me, there are times when I’m pretty sure there’s about 10 lbs of mud stuck to the bottom of each boot.. Look how ridgy those boots are!So great for unslipperyness, but also really great for holding onto way too much mud..

If I ever run into that problem, and I frequently do, I like to use my favorite new mud scraping tool!.

Does anyone recognize what that is?.Believe it or not, she made herself right at home there when we moved in and didn’t make a fuss.

We’re so glad to have been able to finally give her the room of her dreams now though and to have it be something she can really use and enjoy everyday.Let’s do a little before and after tour, shall we?.

So here are those scary dark blue walls I mentioned:.As far as navy blues go, that was a fairly nice one.
