Haberdashery supplies which you always need (such as hemming tape!)
Finding a local haberdashery isn’t always easy and with fewer haberdashery departments in larger stores you may be struggling to find some products that most people need even for basic jobs. Wundaweb is one of these products. This very popular product is a brilliant time-saving item, made of a fine, fusible fleece which bonds fabrics together quickly & easily, providing a natural firmly-joined finish (and saving you a lot of time and effort!)
We now have a new addition to the Wundaweb range with the Jumbo pack of Wundaweb 20m x 20mm (also available in 10 metre strip x 22mm wide size). This provides great value and is also available as a multipack so saving you even more money! Ideal for Dresses, Skirts, Trousers, Curtains and much more, this easy hemming, no sewing is very popular with our customers.
One customer recently wrote about Vilene Extra Strong Wundaweb:
“Excellent product range. Easy to use and very effective”
Gina Roberts – Author
This extra strong version is suitable for heavier fabrics & areas that require an extra strong bond. Ideal for hems on Jeans, Work wear Combat & Canvas fabrics, Soft Furnishings, Craft applications & applying the trims.
I recently wrote about the ways I was making use of the new Velcro® products (such as the Sew & Stick Tape for attaching a blackout blind), but it’s also really useful to have certain items in your sewing kit for dressmaking and repairs. I’ve already mentioned the Hem Fix Kit, which is ideal for instant repairs, but Sew on Tape (plus Anti Snag Sew On Tape) and Iron on Tape are also great for use at home when you don’t need an instant fix.
The Velcro® Sew on Tape is ideal for many Home Furnishing and Dressmaking tasks. It can be used for hand or machine sewing of soft furnishings, garments and more round the home. Each pack contains 20 mm x 1 metre and is very long lasting and durable.
Want to make it even easier? For those who don’t want to (or can’t) sew… try the Velcro® Iron on Tape which is great for non-sew applications. Ideal for repairing and making clothes – use it instead of Buttons & Zips. Each pack contains 16mm x 1 metre.
In preparation for the big Spring Clean Up you may want to think about starting the long overdue task of storing away everyday items in the kitchen, under the stairs, in cupboards, the garage or shed.
Check back later in the week when I’ll run through many household products that are becoming increasingly difficult to find on the high street… why spend all your time looking for these products when you can find them all from the comfort of your own home?
If you have any suggestions of products you too are finding difficult to find please Contact Us and let us know… with customer feedback we can continue to build our range of products and continue to provide our customers with what they want!
