USES FOR WAXED THREAD
This
is the beginning stage of "101 ways to use waxed thread" presented
by Maine Thread Company
We
are now simply assembling the list, and details will follow later.
Please note that this amazing product is versatile, the thread plies
can actually be stripped apart if very thin wax string is required,
as in model ship riggings and small dream catchers or even in custom
jewelry.
This
list consists of uses of waxed thread that are very practical in
everyday life, others are for arts and crafts, and some are just
silly and fun!
Here
we Go!
