Thanos Infinity Gauntlet – Cheap and Easy DIY Infinity Gauntlet

So in this tutorial weā€™ll make a cheap and easy DIY Infinity Gauntlet! (Doesnā€™t that just put a smile on your faceā€¦)

Cheap and Easy DIY Infinity Gauntlet

MATERIALS USED:
A left-handed glove (check your local 2nd hand shops)
1 sheet of 3mm craft foam
Round plastic rhinestones: pink, yellow, green, red, blue
1 purple oval plastic rhinestone (Found in JoAnn Fabrics ā€“ canā€™t remember brand name)
Scissors
Hot glue gun
Gold puffy paint
White school glue
Foam brush and cup to hold glue
Metallic gold paintĀ 

I had several requests for this tutorial (because honestly who doesnā€™t want to be ready for Infinity War coming out in a few months). So I created this tutorial for a cheap and easy version. I already had the gold paint, the puffy paint, and the glue on hand when I made this, so basically all I ended up buying was the glove and the plastic gems. But even if you donā€™t already have all the paint and glue on hand, itā€™s still pretty inexpensive to make.

The glove I used as the base for this DIY Infinity Gauntlet was just one I picked for 50 cents in the local Salvation Army (so check your local second hand shops). The little ā€œrufflesā€ on the edges of the fingers concerned me at first, since I thought they might make it look bad, but by the time I got the gold paint on it, it looked just fine.

I did mess up the bottom on my DIY Infinity Gauntlet a bit. It should have gotten wider the closer it got to the bottom, and I ended up just making mine the same width all the way down unfortunately. So when youā€™re making yours, before you hot glue it in place, make sure itā€™s wider at the bottom than at the top for a more authentic look.

For the puffy paint on the wrist of the glove, I took a little artistic liberty and just kind of free-handed a random design on it. Itā€™s similar to what I can see on the movie version of the Infinity Gauntlet, but not exactly the same. So just Google a few pics of the Infinity Gauntlet and kind of go from there to make your own puffy paint design. As long as it gives it dimension, itā€™s not going to matter if itā€™s an exact match.

So good luck on your making your own DIY Infinity Gaunlet. Youā€™ll be ready for Infinity Warā€¦balancing the universe is optionalā€¦ šŸ˜‰
