Before the Ball

In a quiet window nook, there are signs of a party soon to come. A pretty fan with a painted silk scene and some long kid gloves have been abandoned here, along with household advice books (just in case anything goes wrong tonight...)
 
I made the fan a while ago. You can read that post here. These gloves are one of the most amazing miniatures I own. They aren't the typical flat piece of leather cut into a glove shape. If you look closely at the photo above, you can see tiny stitches along each finger. Someone actually a real pair of miniature gloves! I wish I knew who made these!

    Wow! Those gloves are Incredible! I have always wanted to try to make some.... now I know it is possible!!! Thank you for pointing out the stitches... when I enlarge your photo I can see them... but I would not have known they were stitched without the enlargement! You have such Lovely accessories... who is going to the Ball?
