WHEN LIZ RIGNEY said yes to Boot It Up! she didn’t realize what she was getting herself into.

The CTV reporter thought she was agreeing to do a story on a new fundraiser benefiting the Learning Disabilities Association of Nova Scotia.

She didn’t realize she was also saying yes to creating art out of Blundstones boots that would then be auctioned off to benefit the society that serves children, youth and adults throughout Nova Scotia.

Blundstone Footwear, a classic Australian brand experiencing wild popularity increases in recent years, donated 15 pairs of their iconic boots to be decorated by Nova Scotian notables.
