Using a free pattern from FaveCrafts I made myself a set of fancy wrist warmers (I love feminine, glitzy, unusual, vintage-like adornments) using a new pair of stretchy low cut socks, some lace, and some buttons. They are warm and I think they are also quite classy looking. Mine are the black with white lace.
I also made some for my 4 yo DGD because she likes pink girly girl things. These are fun, easy, and inexpensive to make. I got the girly socks at Michael's for $.50, and the lace was about $1. The buttons I had on hand. And who among us doesn't have every color thread ever made? I love being creative!!!
I'd love to hear what you all think about them. Thanks.

One of my great-niece's aunts..makes these socks all the time. Little one has fancy socks to go with every outfit. Aunt makes them for all her little relatives and friends. Amazing what she has done. They are too cute!
