HI Connie, sorry for the late response. We’ve been traveling for the past two days. I used these tags in color brown. I bought them with the rivets. And I didn’t print anything on them. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more info.

I wanted to get the faux leather hook and screw for potholder like the one you used. I went to the Etsy link and was overwhelmed with so many choices. Can you please show me the one you got (i.e. item number or name)? I couldn’t find it.

Thanks again,
Connie

Good Morning Helen!

My gut tells me it’ll be fine. But, I would do a quick burn test to make sure you don’t have acrylic as some of the recycled fibers. To do the burn test, simply place a piece of the cord in a fireproof container and ignite one end. Cotton smells like burning paper and will leave a gray/white ash residue.

And truthfully, I can’t imagine that if it is mostly cotton, you couldn’t machine wash it. Its up to you, but I’d want to be able to wash it regularly.

Let me know how you proceed.

Hugs, Lynn

It is hand wash cold, lay flat to dry. Will it work for this type of project?
