These are my new cowboy boots! I have always wanted a pair.
When they arrived the color was a bit paler than I expected, so I aged them a little with this really cool product by Delta Ceramco. I originally bought this product to age polymer clay, but with a little faith and a lot of guts I applied it to my brand new boots and am quite pleased with the results!

| Here they are 'before'. Actually I think I had already started to paint the toe in this one. |
 |
| This product is kind of like a gel, first I started applying it with a paintbrush but that was taking far too long and also you have to work quite fast so it was better to just accept that the teal thread would also darken, and work simply with my hands and a dry cloth. |
 |
| So as you can see, it didn't darken them too much - just enough to give them more of a Mid-west vibe as opposed to a Las Vegas vibe. |
 |
| I really like how they turned out! The left is the before, with toe and the right is the after. Yeehaa! |
