HELP!!! I bought yards & yards of Netting a few years ago when I store in town when out of business. I didn't realize Tulle & Netting are not the same thing. Any ideas on what to use it on, or for?

Will it be suitable for net covers for a table or teacups, covers for dishes with elastic round the sides? Hope you can use it. Put a redwork design on it. Hugs and let us know what you did with it.

You can use some by cutting it into long strips about 10 to 15 inches wide and tie big bows for birthday and Christmas packages. Other types of narrower ribbon can also be tied with it to make it even more interesting. I have seen some done like that and they are stunning.

1. Wrap up Easter baskets.
2. Cut them in strips and use them for ribbon on packages. A friend gave me a gift like that, it was very pretty. Strips were 4 - 6 inches wide, she used 3 colors and wrapped them all around a gift box over the wrapping paper like a ribbon.

I have used it for scrubbies and even for the white in tutu's for the granddaughters trying to use it up. There are some interesting suggestions here that I've never even thought of. Thanks and keep them coming!!

I have used it over a contrast material and then embroidered gives an interesting effect.
