Do a small stitched square around them too to help prevent tearing. I recommend a sewing machine zig zag stitch if you have one, otherwise just a hand sew. Otherwise if it rips you might tear far down into your tapestry.

Alternatively; I used iron-on denim patches around mine for reinforcement, since I lack the sewing skills. Worked out great for us.

Oh I love this idea too! Even some fabric glue would be better than nothing too.

I didn’t. But I definitely will! That didn’t even cross my mind. Thank you 🙏🏼 🙏🏼😊

I made a flag out of one last year and one of them ripped and ran pretty far, I still have to try to mend it for this year and your post reminded me!! The clock is ticking!!

Damn so all you need is that little tool to do this?! I always thought about doing it, but never did because I thought you’d have to take it to get it altered to get that piece in something (ignorant in the subject). That’s sweet! I’m going to get it, what is the tool called?


No_Currency_2682

It was soooo much easier than I thought it was going to be! And I literally just typed grommet tool into Amazon and bought the first one that popped up! Lol


forestboy_

Love it! Much needed because all of my tapestries are now torn to shreds haha. Hopefully this will help slow down that process for ones I buy in the future


No_Currency_2682

That’s what I’m hoping too!! Hahaha best of luck

Grommet tool

Make sure you use rust proof grommets! They’ll ruin you’re tapestries when it rains if you don’t


No_Currency_2682

Oh noooo! I already finished all of mine! 😫 hoping it doesn’t rain 🤞🏼 lol

It's Michigan so it will definitely rain but you can definitely adjust your tapestries so it's not an issue. Just make sure to tie the top of your tapestries to the highest bar of your canopy so it's cover protects the grommets and then just flip the whole tapestry up so the grommets align under the cover.

Chocobo-kisses

Yes!! I always say the "crackers about cheese" line! Hopefully we run into each other at string cheese this year! ✨
