Creative Soul Retreat in March, it is suggested we have a vintage glove. I had considered using one of the gloves I wore as a flower girl for my uncle and auntie's wedding but I didn't think it was old enough until I realised it was 43 years ago!!!!!! mmmmm
I also have a pair of my grandmothers gloves but they are black and I still wear them sometimes during winter, if I am assisting on a funeral. So I have been watching now and then on ebay to see if I could snaffle a pair for a reasonable price.
Not only did I get a pair but the auction was for 7 gloves and after it had finished, the seller emailed me to say that she had a couple of more that she would pop in as well. I like the woman!
I'm not going to use the long pair of light grey ones as they are the only pair that still have all of their buttons. I have tried to get my hands into them but my fingers are longer than the gloves.
Happy me!

I just love those stencils, and you are right, a black backboard would be perfect behind them. Now, if you decide that you don't like them, just email me and I'll take them off your hands...I can send you three truckloads of our juicy Canadian snow that you are coveting:)
