Thread: I Love Walmart.

Tweet

Went to the good old walmart the other day and came home with 23 yards of Black Fabric. It was only $1.00 a yard and it's pretty heavy stuff. Plan on going to get a ton more as it will make better for wall coverings, capes and tunnle wrap.

So the moral of this post is, check out your walmart fabric section today.

Tere are lots of uses for black fabric. Good find.

I am addicted to toile. 1.00 a yard and sometimes you can catch it cheaper then that. I have a ton of toile ghosts that float in my yard from this stuff. Also ask for the cardboard off the fabric bolts. You can make cheap quick tombstones out of these.. Remember though they are not to be used outside in the elements.

i know what you mean , i got the 1$ black fabric wallmart deal last spring here ....bought alot of it to make draps to hide the living room kitchen doorway.....

i also managed for a few $ more a yard , to get tapestry style fabric to make draps for the living room foyer doorway like old manor draperies ....

My son works for a company called Keystone Brothers. They sell uphostery material for boats,cars, and other things. They have some fabric that runs several hundred dollars a yard. Anyway, the other day he brought me a whole roll of heavy burlap. It is 60" wide and the diameter of the roll is over 24". His boss said he had asked him the price so many times that when they were switching manufactures he just gave it to him. My son loves to build things with MM, so he is really happy and so am I. Did I raise him right or what?

Great find and thanks for the tip! Sometimes we have our haunting material right in front of us and we don't notice.

The best thing is the lady said its there pretty much year round and they had diffren't texturs. Beats using black plastic. At least you can reuse this and it doesnt rip as easy.

For the past 3 years I have been picking up the black material at walmart when I found it for $1 a yard, and with the last 20 yard bolt I bought last week I now have all furniture on the first floor and basement covered, and all the big machines & tables that are in my husbands 3 car garage, where we have the "bar" set up.

Now I have to find new uses for it!

There are indeed many uses for black fabric , especially for us Halloween fiends. Great find. I'll have to venture out to my local WalMart to investigate. Oh, and I totally agree with what was mentioned above - Halloween goodies are perpetually all around us, all we have to do is look in the right places....

Thanks for the heads up, halloweenking!
