Just curious if anyone has used the Easter wrap which is pearlescent transparent and comes in a roll for their mylar designs? Does it work?

Thank you soooooo much for sharing that info with us. I tried to research it on the internet and it sounded like it was the same stuff. Nice to know that it works.

It is kind of a cellophane used for wrapping up easter baskets, etc. Find it with the Easter merchandise. After Easter it should be on clearance and cheap.

I bought some clear but pearlesque at Joanne fabrics yesterday, it was $2.99 for a roll. I also found blue and pink at Walmart but it doesn't have the pearly look to it. So I am going to try it.

I get mine at the dollar store, they didn't have the rolls only the packages, but you get a lot for a dollar and several different colors. The only color I need now is purple.

Hmm, might be interesting to use this for 3D flowers.

I did a Mylar embroidery search for photos and I think I did see some 3D items. Make sure to post a picture. Thank you for the suggestion.
