My everyday object may not look like something that we would use every day (a miniature shoe…really? what could that be used for?), but past the outward appearance, it serves as a perfectly useful hammer. Traditionally, a hammer contains a metal head that looks somewhat like an arc and it has a long handle, relative to the size of its head, that usually provides some sort of comfort to our hands. This hammer, however, does not fit that description at all. With only about 15% of it being composed of metal, it instead takes the shape of a high heel that is adorned with rhinestones to give it shine and different shades of blue and white paint. Dainty and delicate it may seem, but this graceful gizmo is one strong powerhouse. It allows me to hammer nails into my wall so that I can hang anything from lights to picture frames. It gives me the ability to fix a disassembled chair or the strength to crush up chocolate for my favorite cheesecake recipe. Aside from indicating my love for shoes, this little guy or “girl,” for that matter, really provides me with so much freedom, power, and opportunity to express myself to the world. The greatness of any person, place, or thing is determined by its meaning from within. But, who says you can’t have both? It’s always fun to add a little visual spice to enhance originality and style of anything!
