  1. I agree, these are very pretty accessories, I have a bit of a thing for cotton day gloves at the moment, but I think I might get a couple of odd looks if I did wear them. Ah well, a girl can dream.

  3. I know! Aren't they spectacular!? I think this is a good reason to take a crack at making gloves.

  4. You're much more ambitious than I! I'm going to buy some gloves and dress them up. :)
