Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I apply the gimp braid trim to upholstery or fabric?

A: This woven braid trim is designed for both sewing and gluing. For fabric and garments, simply stitch it along the edge using a standard needle and thread or a sewing machine. For upholstery and home décor projects like curtains or lampshades, a hot-glue gun or fabric adhesive gives a clean, secure finish. The trim can be cut to any length with scissors.

Q: Will the polyester braid trim fray when cut?

A: Thanks to its tightly woven 100% polyester construction, this gimp braid trim is highly resistant to fraying. For extra security on cut ends — especially on sewing projects — you can apply a small dab of fabric glue or fray-stop solution to seal the edge neatly.

Q: Is the 25 m roll enough for a standard sofa or set of curtains?

A: 25 metres (27.34 yards) is a very generous length suitable for trimming a full sofa, a set of curtains, multiple cushions, or a combination of smaller projects. We recommend measuring your intended surface(s) before starting so you can plan your cuts efficiently and make the most of every metre.
