How to Make a Christmas Mitten with Proxxon Tools

Hi everyone.  Summer is winding down and you know what that means, right?  Christmas is on the horizon and it's never, ever, too early to start creating holiday projects.  Steph Ackerman here today to show you how to make a decorative mitten with Proxxon Tools.



Supplies:
Proxxon Scroll Saw
Proxxon Delta Sander
Proxxon Bench Drill Press
Plaint Texture Coastal Paint
Delta Ceramcoat
Plaid Stencil
Rinea Foils
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist
Chipboard
Ribbon



Draw a pattern on a piece of plywood.
Cut around the pattern using the Scroll Saw.


Punch a hole in the top with the Drill Press.
Use the Delta Sander to sand down the mitten.


Paint the mitten with Plaid's Coastal Texture Paint in Seal Grey.  
I first painted it black then realized I wanted it grey.
The Coastal Texture Paint easily covered the black paint.


Use painters tape to mask off sections of the mitten.
Add stenciled effects with molding paste.


Remove the masking tape and add strips of Rinea Foiled Papers across the mitten.


Paint chipboard elements and add them as shown.
Wrap ribbon around the mitten.
Die cut a pointsettia from Rinea Ruby/Gold Glossy Foil.

Place the pointsettia atop the ribbon.


Now I've got a new Christmas decoration to hang this year.

Thanks for stopping by.

I really like this glove and how you have
decorated it. It is charming, I would be happy
to hang this on our door. Good instructions too.
Great work.
