I have a pair of leather gloves of my Nan’s that I cannot get on comfortably (she had tiny hands while I have blinking great bricklayers hands). If I can attach them just right they might just be saved from the charity shop (I will practice on cheepo fleece gloves before cutting up my sentimentally charged leather ones). It even looks simple enough for me to manage without cocking the whole thing up. Yay.

At this rate I’ll be swapping my Primark laden wardrobe for a designer inspired one in no time. So glad I stumbled on your site :)

(Sorry I’m posting all over your blog btw – DH has made me put away the sewing machine for the evening so…)

By the way love your nail polish color.

When I first starting cycling someone told me old wool sweaters were the trick to make cheap arm warmers.

Your nails! The gloves! All so elegant. Thanks for the idea/tutorial. I need something stylish, yet warm in this weather.

My sister has Reynaud’s disease, and in cold weather, her hands turn into painful, bloodless, appendages reminiscent of dead flounder. Having some long cuffs to bridge the gap between coat sleeves and gloves, while still looking stylish will make occasional trips to cold climates much easier. And I suspect my one cousin who insists on remaining in New York will like them, too. Two Christmas presents chosen, and it’s only January! Thank you!

It’s still summer in the southern hemisphere, but dreaming about the next season is always fun. Congratulations on the wedding – I was getting very cross about the lack of postings (you really are selfish!!). I sincerely hope that after these two posts you don’t lapse into months of silence again. Now that really is selfish!!!

Also, lechooooon. *drool*

So excited……..Congrats to you and yours and keep the ideas and projects coming. Love it!!!

Congratulations on your wedding!
