Description exercise

We made lists of words that described eyes and hair (see earlier post). Now, let's try hands and feet.  You can do one or both. I'll start. Please add your lists in comments. You did so well with the other exercise I'm anxious to see what you come up with.
Hands
Wrinkled
Boney
Rough like sandpaper
Smooth as silk
Scarred
Bleeding
Freckled
Red
Blotchy
Warm
Cold
Slippery (from hand cream)
Smell like cherry blossoms
Fast
As large as a moose
As small as a mouse
