Classic Harley Quinn
Now for a couple of the trickier pieces: Harley's wrist cuffs and shoes!
Harley's Wrist Cuffs
To make Harley's frilly wrist cuffs, I start by cutting a long strip of white latex and then making regular pleats in it. Then I glue the pleats together, offsetting them just a bit.

As the pleats add up the cuff starts to take shape.

Next I glue a band along the inside of the cuff. This will help keep the pleats in place, provide a place to attach the snaps, and makes sure the cuff is the right size.

Finished! Now I just need to make the second one...

Harley's Shoes
Harley's shoes were made by gluing latex over a patent leather shoe. I don't list these on Etsy because I'm not sure I can get the exact style of shoe again, but any vinyl or patent leather shoe will work, and I'd be happy to either shop for a pair for you or work with a pair of shoes you already own.

All finished! Harley's ready to cause some mayhem!
