At Calico Laine, we have a large range of cords in our Haberdashery collection which can be used for a number of different applications. We regularly have business customers who are looking for a high quality cord which can be made into gift bag handles and this is probably our most popular use for cord. For this application, we would usually suggest our 6mm and 4mm Rayon cord which has a lovely sheen to it. This creates a luxurious and high quality aesthetic. This Haberdashery item is available in a large range of colours and with two sizes to choose from you will no doubt find a version to suit your project. Many business customers also come to us looking for cord to use for lanyards. This is generally to hold name tags for business meetings or conferences. For this we usually suggest our 3mm Anorak cord which can also be found in our Haberdashery section online. This is an ideal cord as it is thick enough to hold a name tag but would not be too heavy around the neck. Again, this Haberdashery item is available in a number of different colours in the range. We also stock cord in our Haberdashery section which is suitable for home furnishings and home decor. If you are looking to pipe some throw cushions for your sofa we stock a selection of different sized piping cord which can be covered with fabric or binding and then used to finish your cushion edges. Cords can be a great way to update an existing cushion or stool by creating a fancy edge to the item.  As well as piping cord, we also offer a great value for money, roman blind cord which can be used to create your own blind or replace a bathroom light cord. If you have any queries about our Haberdashery range or cords please get in touch with us and we will be happy to help. Until next time, Calico Laine
