Ivory Gimp Braid Trim 3/8" X 10 Yards

I've been purchasing this gimp braid trim (amongst other ribbons/trims & packaging) from Paper Mart for over 10 years. Their prices are very affordable, especially for small businesses and offer quality products. I ended up coming to Amazon to purchase more of the gimp braiding as their website shipping rates have increased significantly. Unfortunately, they charge nearly 3 times here on Amazon than they do on their website. So, either way, I guess I'm still paying for the crazy shipping increases. Bummer. Also keep in mind, you may run into rolls that are cut.

All as described.

just what i needed

This gimp trim is made well, but the color is a bit odd. It's more yellow that gold, but a weird yellow.

Like the way it shape my baskets as l decorated it

Really great friend used for reupholstering a chair looks great

The product is high quality but although the photo makes it look metallic it is not. Instead is a just a flat gold color like a Crayola crayon. I learned the hard way you have to look for the word "metallic" in the description and will try that next. I also discovered although I ordered three rolls instead of one three times , I could not return the two unopened ones. This is not the sellers fault --- it is Amazon's. Caveat emptor!

I tested a small piece in some cool water to check for any bleeding of the wine color. So glad I did as it really did bleed. Cut my pieces and then rinsed, let soak 5 min and re-rinsed in small bowl in sink and less color came out. I was using on black cloth so it should be OK. If you have another color it may not be as much of a problem but test it first. Also, you must use a permanent fabric stop-fraying glue for the cut ends. (I used Aleene's brand Stop Fraying.) This is very nicely made 5/8" braid. I like it. Just prepare it well.

not worth the money, returning it. get it at the dollar store for a lot less.

Perfect for what I needed it for
