Beautiful hand-decorated paper mache balls that would make the perfect tool for essential repairs to knees, elbows, heels and toes - an unusual alternative to a darning egg.
 
To darn simply pop the ball under the hole and wrap an elastic band around it to hold the fabric in place.
 
The rounded surface helps you preserve the original shape of the garment and the smaller size ensures you can fix a hole or well-worn areas without stretching the fabric out too much.
 
Each ball is hand decorated with the most beautiful floral designs in rich jewel shades.
 
All of them are carefully sourced by us from vintage markets and have 'character' e.g. minor chips, surface scratches, dents, tiny holes and marks, from previous use.
 
Suitable for:
darning knees, elbows, heels and toes.
mending small holes, mini tears, thread bare areas and disguising a stain!
