I use bias tape a lot in my sewing, but I hate paying $1.97 for a package that only has 4 yards. While sifting through a pile of random junk on the craft aisle, I found a bag packed with old packages of bias tape. Now, when I say old, I mean old.
Look at these adorable labels? Can you believe it, 15 cents for 6 yards?
I love how vibrant the colors are. Some lady had good taste when she bought all these bright, fun colors.
So yeah, I got this entire pile for only $4. Totally made my day!
I'm going to use the bias tape, but I hate to throw away all those adorable vintage labels. I want to mod podge them to something . . . I don't know! Any ideas? What should I do with those cutie pies?
P.S. I'm sewing up 4 zebra aprons right now with this vintage bias tape on the edge - up for sale soon for some lucky ladies!

Just stumbled across your site when I linked to it from Sugardoodle while searching for sharing time ideas. So excited to find a site with recipes and sewing ideas.
I'm some random person ;), found you thru Sugardoodle, too. Those labels are WAY too cool...I love thrifting finds!
An idea...cut the cute labels out and make them into a wreath, or some kind of wall art to hang in your crafting room/area! :)
I think you should mod podge them onto a cute box that can then hold your bias tape. I'm totally jealous right now.
PS Love the aprons.
