Bo-Nash Giveaway

Do you remember my post a while back when I was raving about the magical fabric repair Bo-Nash?  (click here for the post.)

 

I'd found a beautiful, vintage tablecloth that I wanted to re-purpose into Retro Revival aprons, but there was a good-sized hole in it!

 

 

I used Bo-Nash Bonding Powder and wah-lah!  The hole disappeared!

 

 

Turns out, the people at Bo-Nash saw my original blog post and sent me a great stash of their products!  (I've not been paid for the original post nor this post.)  Rather than use these goodies myself, since I still have lots of the Bonding Powder I bought, I am giving them away.

 

 

Bonding Powder Starter Kit, DVD, Iron Clean, Iron Shoe, and Ironing Mat ~ all for you!  For a chance to win these goodies (valued at over $67):

Like Magic! {Fabric Repair}

As summer continues to sizzle outdoors, I've been holed up in my studio, transforming a stash of vintage tablecloths into aprons.  As is my habit, I sew several and then take a "photo break" to capture images for my website and Etsy shop.

 

This is one that I was photographing yesterday:

 

 

Pretty from afar but I saw something odd.  Something bad!

 

 

Dern it!  I failed to notice this hole and didn't cut around it. Just as I was about to have a meltdown about a beautiful apron ruined, I remembered buying some BoNash online.

 

 

I'd heard it was a really easy way to mend holes ~ the entire process took just a couple of minutes.  (They have a good YouTube video too; click here.)

 

Look!

 

 

It's like magic, sewing magic!

 

 

This little box just may revolutionize my apron business!  No more cutting around holes and wasting fabric.

 

Hope you have a magical day today!

**Update to your questions**

I ordered this via Amazon.com last August (not sure if it shipped from the UK or not?).  It cost $18.52 with tax.  TOTALLY worth it because there is a lot in the container and it only takes a pinch per small hole.  Not sure exactly what the compound is, but it's powdery, like talc.  On the front of the fabric where my hole once showed, it no longer does!  On the back/underside, there is a small patch (it'll make more sense if you watch their video).  Hope this helps!
