Painting Gloves?

Fabric Gloves for Painting

Painting Gloves? You Bet!

FOUND SOME GREAT GLOVES the other day, quite by accident. While in a fabric store looking for notions, I spotted a display with several very nice items. One was this set of gloves. Curious, I opened the box and found two with the fingertips removed. Have seen things like this before but these are lightweight, fit well (come in three sizes) and claim to keep your hands warm. Of course, they are mainly for sewing/crafting but why not for plein air painting or even photography?

I am going to try them out, but wanted you to know about them in case you want to secure some for yourself. If you don’t have a fabric store, try the product web site. I got this from the box. Also check out their little wrist bean bag (again for sewing but I got one for my computer…super duper.) I do not think they are going to be helpful for folks who need to protect their hands from the paint itself. They are fabric, not rubber, latex or other water proof/oil proof/pastel proof. However, they could be worn under other gloves.

Creative Comfort, Crafter’s Comfort Gloves (Relief for Arthritis, Hand Pain, Swelling and Cold Hands.) Or you can find a local retailer here.

The items are pricey but well made and a couple of other customers in the store raved about the products. You just never know where and when you’ll find just the right tool for painting!

What kinds of things have you found this way?

    Hi Katty,
    So glad it was of help. Adding to the above, I received a great pair of very toasty gloves that are fur lined with the fingers cut at the tips for wintertime. Totes makes them.
