Never disappointed with the Barnett Lawson braid trimmings. Good quality and good selection of colours. Very reasonable prices and quick delivery. Perfect for my lampshade projects.
Sold by the metre (1.09 yards) and supplied in continuous lengths where possible.
This design strikes a fine balance between detail and simplicity, enhancing your project while remaining subtle enough not to overpower the piece.

I was recommended by my upholstery tutor to buy my braid from you. It arrived really quickly and I’m really impressed with the quality. It has finished off my first ever project nicely,

I first came across Barnett Lawson when they were in the basement of a building in Londons west end, not far from Oxford street, and what a treat it was, totally magical, I spent ages in there. In the last couple of years I have been buying on line and blow me, I found them again, wonderful! I can truly say there products are of the best quality and the colours are fabulous, never fail to please and delivery is exceptional. My name is Sandra the owner of Hillbilly Angel Designs, I have been a life time crafter, all sorts really, but lately I have been decorating lampshades where I use lots of trimmings. Social media seems to have passed me by, I’ve got a half hearted fb page which i’m not very good at but my email is sandra-macdonald@sky.com which I'm willing to share. Good luck for the coming year. Best wishes Sandra
