Found this interesting article on making Moccasins out of Eel skins. Thought it would appeal to those in tune with nature. It also gives alternatives on using recycled skins found at op shops, yard sales, etc. Tan an eel and then make your own moccasins, that are durable for both outdoors and inside use, and are very comfortable. SIMPLE TO MAKE!
When I was young, my dad used to bring home eels that had been caught during the recent floods. Because he had an attitude to not waste anything (it was tough surviving in those days), he was always great at creating a voyage of discovery for my brother and sister.
Making moccasins is something I have passed on to my own children, even though now, we use (recycled) discarded skins we find in op shops and yard (garage) sales.
This instructions are quite details and can be found here... http://ecobites.com/diy-projects/make-your-own-moccasins.html
