I got the piping. So I need to chop a credit card in half to get sharp enough edges to stick this in? I tried using my visa but it can't get the piping to go in.

Don't use your card use a old card

that looks cool

If I do this I will probably dye the material to a charcoal gray or silver with some RIT dye or something.

Pumpkin1LT · 07-22-2010, 10:37 AM

Where are y'all getting the piping? Michaels? Hobby Lobby?

TonyNo · 07-22-2010, 11:07 AM

You should not need need to dye it as they have many colors.

Joann Fabrics was my source.

They have a "carrot Orange" but it looks more like a dull rusty orange color and doesn't match. What I had to do was buy regular edging and cord and make my own piping.
