My Own Creations
Piano Gloves
I find the inspiration for my accessories in the Victorian/ Edwardian era illustrations, patterns and pictures but in this case I was particularly inspired by the movie “Piano� and the gloves the main character wears.
My Own Creations
Candy Cane Gloves
Let the Holidays inspire . The red and white stripes take us to Christmas Town with candy canes, peppermint bark and other Christmas goodies. And the side stripe with buttons is a reference to spats and the Victorian Era, when Christmas was a celebration appreciated by the whole family.
