Dingle balls/Ball fringe?

Many trim companies have lines especially for outdoor use.  Brimar, for example, has an "onion" trim similar to pompom:

Donghia actually has outdoor pompom trim, but I can't find a photo.

They all carry brush trim, though.

I had a dream last night of a big hairy gimp with ball fringe. This is becoming all consuming!

Thanks Dede! It's really to bad I don't really like anything from Brimar, cause it really fits the bill! Aside from no teal. Actually this weekend we got a job redoing a baby buggy from the 40's and it had trim just like one on the hood. I'll let the customer know that we can indeed replace it! Thanks!

Ya something seems wrong with the Donghia site. Or at least the trim page. Maybe they're getting out of the dingle ball business?

When you get on Google you know you hit the big time. Way to go dude.
There cannot be a crisis next week. My schedule is already full.

(Kody, fabulous website!  I have an office chair very similar to the one pictured.  I love it, but it really needs to "lose" the icky brown vinyl and corroded nail trim!)

My balls came on friday!!!

woo hoo!!!

I got them from this place-
http://sugarpinkboutique.com/
$1.50 a yard. Cheap at twice the price!

I got right to it.



Admittedly I wish they were a bigger. 1" would've been more prominent. My wife thinks we should keep looking for bigger balls. She can sew them on next time.

Did I read that rite   Your wife want to get you bigger balls?

Peppy

She likes 'em big and blue Mike what can I say. Personally my little ones are growing on me. I wish they hung a little lower, thats all. You can't really see them from a distance.

Maybe you should have gone a contrasting color.  You know like gold balls inside cheeche and shongs lowrider

Peppy

Well I guess it's not to late, I could just sew some of these things to the lid-
