This trim has two parts: a firm, smoothly woven tape 20 mm wide, plus poms hanging from it at even spacing. Those balls, made from 100 % polyester, sit about pea-sized, soft yet holding shape well enough that they plump up again after washing.
The tape gets stitched into a seam while poms stay outside — along a cushion edge, a curtain hem, at any summer dress hemline. Being smooth, that tape vanishes completely inside your seam.
Wash this trim before first use. Slight bleeding may occur; its own colour stays fast. Stitch it in place using a zipper foot, which brings your seam close enough.
What Borte Breite 20 mm mit Bommeln Ø10 mm Weiß is suitable for
- Cushion covers, where poms give edges welcome volume.
- Curtains plus drapes, where hems fall better weighted.
- Summer dresses plus skirts, where balls swing along.
- Garlands plus decorations, where no hem is needed.
Frequently asked questions
How do I stitch pom pom trim in?
Lay your tape between both fabric layers, poms pointing inwards. Stitch close along their base using a zipper foot. After turning, that tape stays hidden while only your poms show along your finished edge.
Should I prewash this trim?
We recommend it. A first wash may release a little colour into your water, though this trim itself stays fast. Once dry, shake your poms briefly so they regain their round shape.
Will these poms lose their shape?
Polyester springs back well, so squashed balls right themselves again after washing. They flatten permanently only under lasting pressure, say a cushion resting months at a time along that very edge.
How closely spaced are these poms?
They hang at even spacing along your tape, close enough giving a solid edge, far enough apart that this trim bends around a corner. Curves simply want a little extra length allowed.
