I got a large box of trims at a yard sale a few weeks ago, and I really don't need THAT MUCH trim. . .although my 8 year old daughter's trying to convince me to put fringe and balls on everything she owns . I 've saved out a whole lot for our family to use, but would like to know if anyone'd like to barter for some or all of the other. Going from the picture, from top to bottom, here are the lengths:
off-white ball trim: 2 pieces, one is 72" the other is 60"to Aimee
dark gold balls: 94"to Lisa bright green fringe: 59"to LIsa gold and olive dangly stuff: 297"to Aimee
olive balls 170"to Lisa
flat green vareigated 120"to Aimee
larger gold balls: 120"to Aimee
red and black dangly stuff: 34"to Lisa red fringe: 84"to Lisa blue fringe: 214"to Lisa orange fringe: 130".to Lisa I think they're all made of cotton, that's what it feels like to me. Also, I think they've been just in a box for however many years??? so some are a little smushed looking, not as perfect as you'd get from the store.
Please let me know if you're interested in trading for some or all. The thing is, I'd really like to barter, as in, get something in trade. For some reason, I'd say I've received things in trade from only about half of the barters I've been involved with. Who knows why! But anyhow, that sounds kind of selfish when I read it over, but I really do like the idea of bartering. So, just let me know! Thanks! |

Sheila, I'd be interested in the blue fringe if it is still available. Email me off line and we can see what I can barter. I crochet, so think along those lines... Sharon

Lisa! I got my package today from you. I've got to tell you, what a GREAT thing for today (90 degrees, babysitting 3 kiddos plus having my own 3 here) etc etc. . .and then that lovely jewelry!! Thanks so much! Are you sure the fringe was worth it? And the dishcloths were a great bonus also. My 8 year old daughter said those were SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than what we usually use! Thanks for making my day! |
