Hi again! I just wanted to let you guys know that it is so super easy to make your own shrinkie threader and I found they work just as well if not better since they're more flexible. Just take some wire, phone wire..networking wire whatever, cut say a 14 inch piece (or however long works best for you), fold in half leaving a 2 inch loop and twist the bottom up and tie off with a little knot.

You can see the pics of the ones I made on my shrinkie/lush sale post. It's so helpful to have several of these threaders if you're having someone help you with the install so why they're using one you can thread up the other for them. Much better then the knitting needle style threaders too that only hold a few shrinkies at a time.

You can even make shrinkie necklaces with the leftovers!! (ok that's going to far..)

Hope that helps someone!
