It’s been awhile, hasn’t it?
Yup, I completely lost my mind on this one and my bottom paid the price. Super ouchie! My bottom was so sore I couldn’t sit comfortably for days after a playful session with this diabolical paddle. Rubber is evil, people, remember that. Of course, I can’t help but share the evil so here’s how I made this devil.
I went to my local super duper discount department store (okay, Wally World) and found what are called “Safety Step” pads in the automotive department. (You can also find them online by searching for “rubber safety steps” if you prefer.) Why automotive? Supposedly you can put these on the steps some trucks/SUVs have. That’s all fine and good but I had other plans for those lovelies.
They have self-adhesive backing which makes them easy to stick together and make a heavy duty paddle. First, I measured the pads and created a paddle pattern which I traced onto the adhesive paper they were backed with. I was careful to shape a handle that could be easily held onto since it’s a bit hard to get a good grip on the rubber. It’s not stiff like a wooden paddle and it’s flat so it’s important to get that part right. Then I cut the pads one at a time. Once they were a matching set, I removed the paper backing, lined the two sides up with the sticky sides facing each other, and carefully stuck them together.
Voila! My very own rubber tread paddle made with my very own crafty hands. And it was a whole lot cheaper and fun than buying one.
That, btw, was the last sensible thought I had about that paddle. Once it was in Dan’s hands, it was a totally different story. Wowza! Once again my greedy bottom got the best of me. It sounded like a good idea at the time. Just looking at those rubber treads and dreaming of how I could make one mean paddle using those pads got me all worked up. So worked up that my good sense went on holiday and left me hanging.
What spanko bottom out there hasn’t had the same experience? You know, you see a toy and start dreaming of how good a spanking would feel with it. Then the butterflies start, your bottom starts to tingle (as well as other parts *wink wink*), and you have to have it. Oh yeah, I know that feeling well!
I had to have it and then once it was finished, Dan gave it to me good that night. That paddle burned like crazy! Not just during the spanking but for quite a while afterwards. I knew at the time I had made an error in judgement. It didn’t feel that heavy just holding it, but when it was swung…OUCH! Each time that paddle landed it left a deep searing burn across my bottom like few other implements ever have. I think that’s because it’s rubber, covers so much area, and has all those treads across it. That paddle set my bottom on fire!
The day after my bottom was marked and so sore I could barely sit. Then for the next few days I couldn’t sit comfortably at all. It was days before the soreness went away. But it was a lovely soreness so I’m not complaining. Some of us bottoms dream of such an after burn, but it still takes one by surprise when it happens. It’s definitely not an unwanted feeling, it’s just surprising, that’s all.
So, take this as a warning to any of you greedy bottoms who should feel the need to create such a paddle. It’s formidable and not for everyone, but if you enjoy a spanking that delivers a seriously deep burn, then it might be the paddle for you. I still get butterflies and the tingles just looking at it. Eeeek! *grin*
Hi Bethie! Thank goodness you are back! I had pretty much given up, but still check back automatically every week or so. How delighted I was to find a new post from you, and such a great story about your new paddle. Welcome back! I look forward to more blogs about your wonderful painful experiences. Dylan
Hi Dylan! Glad to be back and happy, as well as amazed, that anyone is still visiting. Yay! 😀
Thank you for the welcome back!
Bethie
Hi Bethie,
There you are! Welcome back.
Rubber spanking implements are evil, evil, evil. But I have to admit that I’m just a tiny bit curious (this is how it starts…).
In any case, it’s delightful to hear from you!
Hugs,
Bonnie
Hi, Bonnie! Good to be back! I keep thinking I need to take time to chime in on your brunch topics but either I’m behind in my reading or don’t have anything worth adding to the conversation. One of these days…
Thank you for welcoming me back!
Hugs,
Bethie
Hi Bethie!
I somehow recd a post from Spanking Classics and went back to those early days in 2003-5 and tried reading and following the discussions and role play threads.
My alter ego was Woobie (a nut case that spoke to animals)
but I remembered you and Dan (was his nickname spanky or sparky or Mikey?)
So many memories of that sweet time. Besides you and Dan, there have been several who met and either married and became deeply involved thru classics. I’m so happy for you all.
I’m still trying to follow all those simultanious threads from the different boards from 2003 but we all seemed to give different nicknames to everyone.
I lost my husband suddenly of 12 years in January of 2012.
I dont know why, but rereading those insane posts helps me remember a sweeter time and a place where we would all gather after a long day, like in Cheers, and laugh and play and unwind.
Hugs to both of you. I so wish I could find another Cheers bar again where everyone knows your name………
Candace
Candace, it’s great to hear from you! But I am so sorry to hear of your loss. *Hug*
I’ve wondered what happened to everyone from that board over the years. We did have fun, didn’t we? We were crazy! After Dan and I got together I slowly moved away from Classics. Some of it was due to being really busy with our new life together and some of it was due to some personality conflicts on the board. Not that it matters now, we all just seemed to drift away.
As for Dan’s nickname, I’m not sure. He was SpankBoss but I think I called him everything but that. LOL
I wish I could find a group as fun as that again but I’m not sure there is such a place or if I’d even have time for it. I’ve tried a couple of networking sites but they weren’t for me. Most of the forums (including mine & that’s my own fault) are quiet now too. I think everyone is Facebooking and doing little else. Guess we’ll have to build our own site, huh? I might even do it if I just had time…
Take care and keep in contact, please!
Hugs!
Bethie
Well, well. Sure sounds like you got what you deserved, naughty you. Welcome back. And no, we didn’t go anywhere.
–Goddess
Goddess, what, me naughty? ;-D
Lovely to know you’re still here!
Bethie
I just made one of these for myself! Thanks for the idea. to make a better handle, I got two halfed wooden down rods in the right width, and then bolted them together around the handle I cut into the rubber, much better comfier grip…. Though that may mean more than I bargain for if her hand stays comfy during it
I love the ad on the top of the page! One of the best assignments I did while in business school was to take older ads and retrofit them with newer content. It was a mix between Mad Men and MTV. Great find!
