DIY projects using Vintage Lace & Doilies

2011-06-16T09:45:00.000-07:00

Hi Creative Friends,

I wanted to share some photos of creative embellishing with sealah no sew adhesive to inspire you to use our products during the summer!

My daughter Kay embellished this linen apron to wear recently for a creative event. The entire apron has been embellished using our sealah no sew adhesive.

The large pocket is a napkin laid flat with a doily placed in the center. She added old ball fringe I had tucked away in my sewing room. The monogramed Eiffel tower tea towel was a gift she decided to cut down and place on the top pocket area. A few ribbons taped on to break up the cream apron. I love the fabric flower she added as a finishing touch on the project.

A great re-do on a lampshade using dollies all adhered and placed with Sealah No Sew tape.

Glass bottles and vases are fun to embellish using our sealah tape. Kay said she loved how it dried clear with no yellowing and it lays flat right up against the glass...she also shared the seashells were all attached using e6000.

Did you know you can use sealah no sew adhesive on metal? This metal treasure box is so beautiful! The lace was tea stained first and sealah taped right on the metal box. I love it. Seashell were added last using e6000.

Happy Summer!
I hope lace projects have inspired you to get busy with creating using our adhesives!

Thank you Kay Ellen for sharing your photos and artful projects.
My first time to join in Stephanie Lynn's Blog Party! Thank you party goers for stopping by.

Easter Blessings

2011-04-24T20:36:00.000-07:00

A quick post to tell my blogging family Happy Easter.

Pictured above is my daughter Kay Ellen's centerpiece she designed this year for her Easter table.

Sorry I have been out the blogging world for quite some time. We have been traveling alot to trade-shows with Jodees Inc. selling our adhesive products and the day we returned from our last trip my husband had a scare and spent a couple days in the hospital, grateful he is feeling better now.

Last week we lost a 32 year old young father in our family; Paul Daniel Soholt
It has been a difficult time for everyone that loved him.
We would covet your prayers for the Soholt Family as time moves forward.

I am packing tomorrow for the International Window Covering Expo that will take place at the Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada this week.

My daughter Kay Ellen and I are excited to connect and visit with colleagues, vendors and friends.

Easter Blessings & thank you for stopping by,

French Inspired

2011-03-23T21:27:00.000-07:00

A French Inspired Art Board

My daughter Kay Ellen just returned from a french inspired artistic event.

She decided to join in an art project where twelve artists would make 3"x 3" moulin rouge inspired paper art pieces....She did not know what the other artists were going to make or design until the final reveal at the event.

It turned out so beautiful! I have only seen the photos so far...I can't wait to see the finished project in person.

Kay said she used our sealah no sew tape on all her pieces and one little dab of hot glue for her creamy heart button.

Inspiring Art & Project!

Thank you for sharing,

Burlap and Sealah Tape

2011-01-12T16:15:00.001-08:00

Happy New Year!

Hope everyone has recovered from Christmas and New Years.

My husband and I were both sick over the holidays so we were slow moving but still enjoyed all the celebrations.

We did get away for a few days after the holidays and one of our stops was visiting a sweet friend Anita in Lake Havasu, Arizona. She has a beautiful boutique and bakery near our condo.

Anita has been a faithful client using our no sew adhesives products for displays and props for over seven years.

Her latest creations are featured in these photos. She made burlap skirts and draperies using our sealah no sew tape!

Burlap is not easy to work with on the sewing machine but with Sealah tape it is a breeze!

Thank you Anita for the mention on your blog about our no sew tape. If you are interested in making burlap draperies I would suggest to order our 5 yard or 30 yard 3/8" width roll.

It really works great for hemming and rod pockets.

The bakery side of Anita's shop is new and we sure enjoyed sampling those yummy cupcakes!

You can place and order for our tape products HERE and visit Anita's Blog HERE

Also our daughter Kay Ellen took a couple of pretty photos of Anita's cupcakes HERE

Have a great week friends!

Jodees Inc. is getting ready for another trade show at the end of the month. We are busy restocking our warehouse with products and will be arriving in Phoenix, Arizona on 26th of January!

Trade Show Review

2010-10-12T09:00:00.000-07:00

Hello Creative Friends!

I am back from another successful trade show.

We introduced a new product that everyone is very excited about called Texture Magic. Do you remember smocking from years ago? Well this is the greatest product and very easy to use along side our sealah tape. I have it up on the website if you are interested in purchasing.

Our grandson came out to work with us. Thank you Kyle you were a huge help. He had crowds of women surrounding him each day as he showed how to use our sealah no sew tape and texture magic.
He is usually a very shy and reserved young man. My daughter said he came home after the show and was a chatter box!

Thankful for the sales and store connections we made at our past three shows. I am still trying to catch up on my sewing!

I will put up a tutorial about texture magic soon. My daughter is going to help me with the photos.

Thank you for stopping by,

Dee

2010-07-23T10:56:00.001-07:00

A quick post to share this pair of jeans my daughter Kay Ellen embellished for a mermaid themed weekend getaway with 48 artists in LA.

She told me that she needed a few odds and ends to add to her old jeans.

Before I knew it she was cutting doilies, ribbon and trim. Our sealah no sew tape is perfect for a project like this.

It sounds like she has a few projects to share but I had to show you her jeans altered! I think they turned out adorable.

See you soon to share more artistic projects!

Hello Blogging Friends,

It has been a busy working summer for me! Sewing and sealah taping valances and side panels.

My daughter Kay Ellen has been involved in several residential re-models. Of course I get excited when she calls me to come out and measure the windows. Always delighted to finish off the room with warming up the walls and windows with fabric!
Workable Romans, soft swags and stationary panels are at the top of my requests for residential customers.

Thought you would enjoy some colorful drapery solutions as well as seeing a neutral palette. Both are very popular !!

Have a safe and blessed Fourth of July!

Happy New Year!

I hope this year is filled with new blooms and new possibilities.

My favorite time on New Years day is enjoying the Rose Parade. In years past we have gone to the Rose Parade in person and the flowers are vibrant, beautiful and full of life! This year we sipped our coffee and watched it at home on our new TV that Santa brought.

I pray for a vibrant, healthy New Year filled with hope and promise for each of us.

A Thankful Time

2009-11-20T00:43:00.001-08:00

Hello Sealah Tape Friends!

Such a beautiful Fall season we are having. I am counting my blessings and thanking our Lord for each precious day he gives us.

A very busy season sewing and taping! Each job is an amazing blessing!

We are having Thanksgiving at our home this year and I love the idea of making a new table cloth. Are you considering a new table cloth for Thanksgiving? What about making your own table cloth!

Grab some no sew sealah tape and have fun. Hemming is very easy to do with our sealah no sew products! I would suggest our 1/2" width or 3/8" width roll to hem.

My daughter Kay Ellen just put up photos and ideas for a Thanksgiving table setting... and a tutorial on hemming fabric with our sealah products to make a Holiday table cloth... Click here to see!

Have a blessed and thankful week!

Fall Colors Become Alive in Fabric

2009-10-27T23:48:00.000-07:00

Hi Sealahtape Friends!

Here is a Fall feeling valance, floral with a touch of plaid.

I still enjoying sewing after twenty five years of owning a drapery workroom. My new resources come in handy on every window treatment. This Box Pleated valance I used our sealah shaper wire in the hem and to bend the edges of the drapery treatment.
It helps hold the pleats into place and gives a crisp finshed look.

We sell this product in 7 yard spools... 20"gauge wire doublesided adhesive. What a life saver!

Please email me or leave a comment if you would like a small sample to try.

I hope you are having a beautiful Fall season. Have a blessed Halloween with your family and friends.

Happy Creative Week!

A Quick Embellishing Idea

2009-08-10T22:48:00.000-07:00

Hello,

Here is a fun and quick idea to spruce up a room.

The pillows were purchased at a super store. I needed a quick solve for pink accents in my guest room. I know.... I sew! Unexpected company was coming so I asked my daughter Kay Ellen to transform the pillows fast.

The trim and button box came out of the sewing room and an old hankie that belonged to my Mom.

Quickly we used the sealah tape to apply the rick rack, hankie and buttons...In less then 20 minutes we transformed the two ready made pillows!

If I ever get tired of the trim or hankie I put on the pillows I can take it off with our product called UnDo and it will not hurt the fabric!

Kay and I used the 5 yard spools of 1/2 and 1/4 to complete the pillows.
The undo and sealah tape is available on our website !

Have a wonderful week,

Dee

I get so tickled when I see fashion ideas with our products!

The vintage fabric, rickrack and ball trim is so pretty on the denim jacket!

What a great idea for a decorated canvas tote?!

Good morning Blogging Friends,

Thank for all the emails and well wishes on my new blogging adventure.
My daughter KayEllen is showing me the ropes!

My business is filled with fabric, sewing, tape, and drapery installations.

Here are two window treatments that I fabricated and my daughter designed.

The sealah tape always comes in handy, I used the no sew tape on each window treatment.

The board mount valances on the french doors are hemmed with our 3/8 inch sealah tape.

This Goblet Valance I made turned out so pretty. I added the trim with our widest width 7/8 sealah no sew tape.

Be sure and email your testimonials using our products for the website.

Off to measure windows with KayEllen today.

Have a great weekend,

Bend it Shape it... anyway you want!

2009-06-22T20:42:00.000-07:00

Hello creative friends!

I wanted to show you this box pleated valance I made. My daughter designed the treatment and I fabricated the valance.

A great finishing touch in this valance is our bendable wire. I placed the sealah 20 gauge wire into the hem of the valance.

You can see in the picture how crisp each fold is...that's the wire doing it's job!!!

Bend it shape anyway you want too!

We sell the sealah 20 gauge shaper in 7 yard spools. If you are interested in ordering a spool just head over to the website:) BTW it is a no sew product!

A fun wall hanging project!

2009-06-16T21:42:00.000-07:00

Hi friends,

This is fast and easy project you can do with sealah no sew tape!

You start with a solid color place mat. Find a piece of fabric with a print to center on the place mat.
Cut the fabric to a desired size use raw edges...no sewing friends.

Measure out trim for the place mat. Top and bottom ball fringe. I added black fringe on the bottom to ad weight to the wall hanging.

To hide the raw edge of the printed fabric use a rickrack to hide any mistakes. Frame around the fabric square.

Just tape away...Peel,Press and Stick!

I would suggest to purchase the 5 yard variety pack. It is the best way to complete the project. Several widths of tape to match up your trim and fabric.

You could make at least 6 wall hangings with the variety pack of tape.

Have a crafty week with Sealah!

Adding trim to a lampshade

2009-06-03T08:36:00.000-07:00

Hi friends,

I thought it would be nice to show an example of adding trim to an existing lamp shade.
This fringe and gimp really gives this lamp shade a custom look.

My daughter KayEllen used our 1/2" sealah no sew double sided tape for both the gimp to outline the shade and the fringe at the bottom to complete the project.

You can change the look of a lampshade fast and easy with our tape!
No mess, odor or yellowing!

Have a creative week!

Hi Friends,

I thought I would show you another trade show drapery vignette.

This Window Expo event was in Georgia.

The designer featured used our tape products in selected areas.

The cornice board has our sealah shaper 7 guage on the ruffle. Our shaper actually has created the ruffle affect.
Can you see how it stands out?! You can bend it or shape it anyway you want! It is sold in of 7 yard spool on our website.

The side panels we hemmed with our sealah no sew 1/2" size tape. .

The lamp shade is recovered to match the chair. The designer used our sealah no sew double sided adhesive to apply the fabric and trims. She decided to buy our 5 yard variety pack. You get 5 sizes in the pack. Very handy when you need several different widths for your project.

Also the designer had enough no sew tape left over from the variety pack...she embellished the pillow trims with our tape!

Remember our product does not yellow. Has no toxic smell. Odorless!! Clear and thinnest on the market!
Drys in 24 hours or sooner if you press it with an iron:)

Thanks for stopping by!

Drapery Ideas with the help of Sealah "No Sew" Products

2009-05-22T17:08:00.000-07:00

Hello,

This drapery treatment was displayed at our Window Covering Expo in Massachusetts.

The side panels were hemmed with 7/8"sealah no sew tape. Banding salvage edge was taped with 1/2" sealah tape and then sewn to complete each panel.

The Cornice Board was stapled and padded. The ball trim at the edge of the shaped cornice was added with sealah no sew 1/2" inch tape.

All sealah no sew tapes are available in 5 yard and 30 yard spools on our website.

The scroll look was stapled down first in the shape desired, then the welt was attached with double sided 20 gauge sealah shaper. It has a flexible thin wire that helps with the ease of placing the welt.

The 20 guage sealah shaper is sold in 7 yard spools on our website.

All our products are a wonderful help to drapery workrooms, time saving value with each drapery project.

Be creative with Sealah Tape!

Have a wonderful weekend.

Apron's are in Fashion

2009-05-17T21:10:00.000-07:00

Hello Friends,

I thought I would share this apron with you this week.

Have you noticed how popular aprons are right now? I bought this ready made canvas apron at Joanne's Craft Store and my daughter Kay Ellen had fun embellishing it with fabric, ribbon, trim and buttons she found in my drapery workroom. She used our tape to add each item.

This photo and my daughter's blog are featured in Artful Blogging by Somerset Studios 2009 Summer Issue!

It is available to buy at Barnes and Noble right now.

We are thrilled that an apron embellished with sealah tape was featured in her article.

Have a great week.

Be inspired to embellish and create with Sealah no sew tape!

Let's Embellish a Place mat!

2009-05-13T09:50:00.000-07:00

I love showing how easy the sealah no sew tape is to use. For this project I used the 1/2 inch roll of sealah no sew tape.

We just changed a plain black place mat into a custom look with pretty pink ball fringe.

Remember this place mat will be washable after 24 hours.

Hope I have inspired you to try something new!

Have fun with your Sealah Tape!

Bye Bye!

If these shoes could talk...

2009-05-09T10:34:00.000-07:00

Hello Friends,

I was just thinking about all the wonderful samples and ideas we have for our traveling trade
shows.

These darling shoes were embellished with lace and buttons...both put on with sealah no sew tape over a year ago!

We have traveled from California, Arizona, Tennessee, South Carolina, Oregon, Washington and Georgia and Massachusetts.
These shoes have been on every trip and have inspired many to use our sealah no sew tape in more crafty ways!

The next time you order a roll of tape remember to tell us what you are doing with our tape? We would love to hear about it!

Thank you for stopping by!

Taping on Glass

2009-05-06T16:19:00.000-07:00

Hello Friends,

Spring filled days are here again with blooms around my yard and my orange tree full of fruit.

My daughter Kay Ellen has a beautiful tutorial up on her blog using our 3/8" Sealah no sew adhesive tape.

She taped away with these simple glass cylinder vases she found at Walmart.

As you can see she used lace, silver serving utensils, buttons and some broken vintage jewelry!

Make sure and stop by her blog and enter her May Day contest she is choosing a winner in a few days.

Until next time, have a wonderful creative week!
