Who will love it

Practical tips for best results

1. Plan your length by laying the trim along the edge and snipping to fit. It’s easier to trim after you’ve positioned it once than to guess-and-cut.
2. For fabric applications, pin the trim in place before sewing to prevent shifting. A narrow seam or top-stitch along the edge helps it stay aligned.
3. Test on a scrap piece first to see how the scalloped edge interacts with your color and texture choices, especially on darker fabrics or busy papers.
4. Pair with complementary textures—soft cottons for a cozy look, or smooth cardstock for a clean, graphic feel.

Value you’ll notice

This border trim isn’t just about decoration; it subtly elevates your projects by providing a cohesive finish that draws the eye and unifies disparate elements. It’s a reliable, user-friendly option that supports your creativity without demanding specialized tools or techniques.
