  • New Metallic Foil Sheets & Nylon Chiffon Scarves restocked

    Posted: July 12, 2011 | by | Filed under: New |Permalink

    Metallic Foil Sheets for Embellishment of Fabric and Mixed Media.

    We have a new size and package of our Metallic Foil Sheets. They are much larger at 12″ x 24″ (yes, two feet long), and packaged flat (the foil is folded a couple times). This will make things easier and cheaper for shipping (luv that). Also restocked are the Metallic Foil Value Pack and the Metallic Foil Value Kit. Oh, also the wonderful Foil Glue!

    Today we received a big fat package of Nylon Chiffon Scarves in neutrals and colors. Nylon Chiffon Scarves are fabulous for layering, and can be burned back with a hot tool. The white scarves dye very easily with acid dyes. They are so much fun to experiment with!

    Punchinella as a Bird Scare

    Punchinella Bird Repellant

    Our blackberries started ripening over the 4th of July Weekend and suddenly our bushes were a Jumbo Buffet for the neighborhood birds. I had some Punchinella scraps laying around so I hung them from the nearby peach tree and from the bush supports with some heavy fishing line. Then I tied some metallic foil scraps into the Punchinella holes for added “flair”.

     

    Punchinella Sequin Waste as a bird scare

    They flutter so nicely in the breeze, and so far (knock on wood), the birds have not returned. Punchinella – not just for embellishment!
