Plastic
I have made a bag out of that thick clear plastic before, I wanna make my
formal suit out of it (yes I will basically be naked) but I have no idea where to get anymore of it??? I looked around a spotlight (not too carefully might add) and didn't see it. The best ways I can describe the stuff are the sheets you had on your mattress when you were little to stop you from wetting it. But I can't find that sheeting anymore either (parents these days just send children to bed with disposable training pants i guess) but I would rather it in big rolls like fabric. Kind of like lamanate for video cards. |

You could buy a couple of clear vinyl shower curtain liners also. It would
be easy to lay out the pieces of a suit on those. "kitaro" wrote in message ...

Although the clear plastic shower might be cheaper to purchase from
Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, etc, if you want to buy by yardage, you will most likely find it at JoAnn's as someone else pointed out. I just returned from 2 JoAnn's this afternoon(looking for a particular McCall's pattern for 99cents) and both had the vinyl in the Home Dec dept. Emily |

I was looking at Kitaro's address and didn't know if she has the fabric
stores that we do, so my suggestion was based on alternate shopping ideas. Yes, buying the yardage at JoAnn's is preferable. "Emily" wrote in message ...

Have another look at Spotlight and look in the home decorating section.
I have seen it on rolls along with those plastic tableclothes that you buy by the metre.[ Or check out the website www.spotlight.com.au HTH Dee in Oz "kitaro" wrote in message ...

As D&D said check the Home Dec section of Spotlight because I saw some there
last week - but if you can't find it there look for a company called Reverse Garbage Recycling. (Depending on what state you're in - I'm in Vic and I think it's in NSW too). They get a whole lot of factory offcuts of just about everything including fabric and clear vinyl. Katy "kitaro" wrote in message ...

We're talking vinyl, aren't we? I have seen it in a light/pale/soft green at a Joann's store some time back. There might have been other colors, don't recall. |

Plastic (kitaro) I have made a bag out of that thick clear plastic before, I wanna make my formal suit out of it (yes I will basically be naked) but I have no idea where to get anymore of it??? snip --- My experience in this is limited to viewing the movie 'Fried Green Tomatoes', where one of the characters wrapped herself in Saran Wrap* to greet her husband. Takin' any pictures when you get your birthday suit made? Cea asks, innocently... |
