I have just bought some raw wood bobbins from the USA, previously all my
bobbins have been bought in Australia, and have been plastic. Do I need to
seal these wooden bobbins with anything before spangling them? I wanted to
find out before starting in with the beads and wire, as spangling is not
so
Hi Simon -
Yes, there are a fair number of male lacemakers out there! But just for the
record, I am not one of them, although lots of people assume I'm male because
of my name!

Hello Simon and everyone
To add to the good advice contributed by Jenny in Spain, if the wood
bobbins are completely unfinished, you could seal the wood before
using them to prevent possible checking (cracking). Apply a coat of
'wood sealer' - available with the acrylic paints for crafts.
