These homemade hand warmers are perfect for keeping your hands warm in the Winter! We're off to New York next month and everyone I've told about it had told me just how cold it's going to be! That's where the idea for these cute little homemade hand warmers came from but as brilliant as I think they turned out, there was a fatal flaw to my plan - keep reading and see if you can guess what it was? You really don't need much in the way of sewing skills to make these but I made them as part of a craft afternoon with Jen and because I was at her house, she let me play on her … [Read more...]
