The Bib

Here’s another use for my old placemats. A bib! Templates can be found on the web. Since moisture ruins my placemats I want to seal the edges of the bib. I’m thinking I will do this with heat shrink tubing normally used for electrical cords. Let’s see how it plays out.

In the back the bib is fastened with a simple ribbon. Above I’m in the process of making the ribbon holes with a hole punch. I draw on tape which come right off when I’m done.

I’m hoping the heat shrink tubing will provide a water-resistant nice, smooth edge. This tubing is hollow, and slides off. I’m replacing it with tubing which comes with glue inside that melts.
