Cowgirl Mermaid started during covid in 2021 when I was living alone and working remote. I always have to be making things but at the time I hadn't been handmaking in a while. I had played with decorating my Kinco gloves for skiing the winters before. Decorating your gloves is a ski bum specialty, but I wanted them to feel more fashion and glam to bring my personal style out on the slopes. The first set was 13 pairs, I have been making them since. These are a set I made out of the studio in Feb 2023
Decorated Kincos by painting, faux fur + leather scraps, shells and conchos
Decorated Kincos with painting, faux fur, glitter patches, rhinestones and patches
These are for Cowgirl Mermaids, I finally figured out the wrist band element, i used shoelaces I got at the army surplus store
Under the sea painting, handmade horse patches, faux fur
