Lovely soft arm rests xx the material is flame proof and there on velcro so i can take them off easy when im not doing stringer work.
Not bad as i only asked her to reupholster my chair lol.
Had to share it as im soooooo chuffed!
Only had them a couple of days but they seem to be doing the job.

I really like those - especially if they can also be easily detached. I have a love/hate relationship with my creation station ::)
a creation station looked like torture to me lol.
im glad its all flame proof as i did set fire to my blanket that was cooling beads. never use that now.............always garage its safer for me lol.
They are genius, clever friend you have there
ooh how fab!! Very swish! ;D
They are really cool
I have a gel keyboard wrist rest chopped in half as rests - not high enough!...

Great arm rests!
Can I be a bit nosey and ask...what is the transparent screen thing above your torch flame?...haven't seen one of those before...or am I just seeing things??
Jill
Brilliant! And so thoughtful :)
cbeadies ask away............. its my safety shield. I use it instead of glasses and love it. i never managed to get on with the glasses. and having a prescription pair made at the time would have cost a fortune!

its a diddy shield
thanks for that, so better to use if you wear glasses as my contacts dry out so i go all fuzzy with my eyes
I use hypromellose eye drops for dry eyes. I get them free on prescription along with all my other medicaments.
and there was me thinking I was clever making leather bean bags filled with lentils for my elbows!I keep meaning to stick velcro on them.
got the heavy leather/suede from the scrap store while I was a student, some of those shoe shops that make handmade shoes sometimes sell bags of scraps though.
they don't give me much extra height but they do stop my elbow aching when I'm building up glass for pulling canes and doing beads that take a long time.
These are great - like the sound of your leather ones too Madeline. I used to use a pair of old bed socks, then I got all posh and bought a couple of gel wrist rest, but if a bit of hot glass lands on them they "weep", so now they're covered in plasters ;D ;D
You can often come accross old leather or suede coats costing very little, in boot sales. A leather needle in a sewing machine does the trick.
yep, or charity shops, and the leather needle is a must!
