Leopard Gloves

What do you do when you see a fabulous pair of leopard gloves on Pinterest (see "my style" Bonnie Lynn Young's boards)  but you want them for only 50 cents?  Why, you go to Goodwill, buy a large stretchy ladies top from the 50cent bin, and make them!

After finding the perfect "fabric," trace your fingers adding one-quarter inch all the way around:

Be sure to put the fabric right sides together when you trace your hand, and trace all the way up to your elbow.  After tracing, pin and cut them.  Then sew the gloves with 1/4" seam allowance.  Hand hem the top of the gloves and because they are stretchy, they will fit "like a glove."  Done!

Now they look like this:
It is SO much fun to be creative - every day, if possible!

By the way, here are my latest photos of the garden -- lots of growing going on right now!
It's such a joy to see this!  Next time I come back, I will share another fun and fantastic crafty, creative project.  Talk to you soon, Bonnie
