  • When everything you need is ready, you need to choose the right place. For this Check while using your smartphone which fingers you use and even their exact sides.
  • After that sew lurex into the fabric in these places.

IMPORTANT! The thread should fit as tightly as possible to the finger, otherwise all the work will be useless.

Nothing worked with Lurex

N Nya:

I'm teaching. Non-technical people. We take an ordinary pencil, rub it into powder, mix it with any rubbish that is well absorbed into the fabric and at least rub it all over the pepper, unless it is white. Yes. The cognac of your finger will become a little grayish, but if you have black gloves, then it’s completely fine
