Here are some new doll clothes made from old gloves.
For this sweater we used the fingers to make the sleeves and the turtle neck.
This hat is just the tip of a finger and the infinity scarf is just the elastic bottom of a glove.

Tiny Quilt
Ever wondered what you can do with all those teeny tiny fabric scraps? Make a teeny tiny quilt!
Sorry for the bad picture quality, I can never get Bella's camera to focus right, and it was a rainy day so we didn't have very good light. All that plus the fact that we're not very good photographers, makes for some interesting photos. But that's why we don't have a photography blog! :D

Recycled Gloves
The other day mom was going through our old gloves. Bella and I took all the ones that were missing their matches, and here are some of the things we made with them!
First of all, leg warmers! All we had to do was cut the fingers off the gloves, and then snip a little bit off the tip.
And then.... Barbie sweaters!!!!!! For this one we just cut off all the fingers except the pinky and the thumb. Then we cut off the tips, and viola!
This one was a little harder, because it was bigger. We had to cut off all the fingers other than the thumb, than sew one back on but higher up. We also had to take it in a little so it would fit Barbie better.

WE ARE OBSESSED WITH OUR GLUE GUN!!
This is a really fun way to recycle old spools and fabric scraps! The only other thing you need is a glue gun. And hands.
Here are our miniature stools! They look really cute by miniature vanity tables, or just by a miniature table. Or just by themselves.
They're really quite easy! Just stick some cotton (or fabric scraps, that's what we used and it worked fine) on the top and glue a larger piece of fabric over top of that. On some of ours we also added a lace trim.
