It's been a colder than normal January in the UK. I'm so looking forward to Spring- I can't remember the last morning I woke up and there wasn't a frost and below freezing temperatures!
However, although I'm not a fan of the cold, I really love Winter clothes- big knitted jumpers, cosy coats, hats and gloves. I'm never without a pair of gloves at this time of year and this gave me the idea for this How To. Why not add some sparkle to your Winter wardrobe with my How To for bead embellished gloves? Stay warm and happy making!

Bead Embellished Gloves How To
January has got off to a chilly start, so the hats, gloves and scarves have been out in full force! I wanted to bling up my plain gloves (the more sparkle in January the better, I get sad when the Christmas decorations come down!)so here is my Bead Embellished Gloves How To...
1) You will need
A pair of gloves or mittens, crystal beads in two colours, matching thread and needle
2) Choose which colour beads to use for the first row and stitch a straight row of them close together, just below the fingers of the glove. Repeat with the other glove
3) With the other colour of crystal beads stitch another neat row of beads directly below the first. I stitched the beads in rows because I like the effect, but you could stitch the beads randomly onto the gloves, or stitch hearts, circles or any other design
Happy making and keeping warm in your spangly beaded gloves!
