you know what I'm talking about right? The one that you put candycorn as nails and then fill it w/popcorn.

Where the heck do I get the CLEAR gloves? We have latex ones that are somewhat see through but I want the ones that are all see through ones. plastic and not latex, KWIM?

MANY thanks for your help!

Maybe try a restaurant supply store? Something like GFS or maybe even Sam's Club? I think restaurant workers sometimes wear that type.

Good luck!

If you only need a couple, you could ask the deli department at the grocery store.

They are usually used for food service. I am not sure how many you need, but Sam's used to carry boxes of them.

The first time I made them I bought the gloves at a craft/party supply store. They were super cheap. The second time I just asked DH to bring some home. He's a chef so he has zillions at work.

what store did you get them at? michaels or AC moore may have them? I wonder if iparty carries them.

Oh sorry, didn't remember where you were located. It's a food service supply place open to the public. We go there more often than Costco.

It was actual a store local to my area, Floradec.

Can't help you with the gloves, but I'm curious how you make the hands - sounds cute!

Do you just use the gloves to shape them and then take them out of the gloves? Details please! :)

I stick a candy corn in each finger to be a "nail", then fill with popcorn, close with small clear rubber band (DD's hair ties), and then orange/black ribbon.

thank you all. tried the target counter and the 20 something year old didn't even offer. went to the supermarket and the awesome deli woman gave me a handful!!! can't wait to make these. figured they'd be a fun decor and another cute little goodie for the kids to make w/me and give to their friends
