How to make a thimble

Super fast and easy way to make a ‘fits like a glove’ sewing thimble 🙌🏻

I have a thimble somewhere in my house but I needed one ‘NOW’ so I made one in a couple of minutes
And it’s fits my finger like a glove - no more balancing acts 👍🏻

Pop a stick into kettle boiled water for about a minute - wait for the wiggle- tear off what you need then mould and smooth wait a minute for it to harden - stand back and admire your clever work! 😍

You will need:

  • FixIts stick
  • Kettle boiled hot water
  • Needle to make indentations.



Get your FixIts

Reusing things is a really practical, creative way to save time and money, and do your bit to save waste. We've pulled together some ideas below that celebrate the art of reusing. Try reusing one thing this week?
We were tidying up some of the things in our garden this week, and realised FixIts is so good for all the bits and bobs we needed. Take the eyelets below. If we didn't have FixIts, we'd have to wash our hands, jump in the car, drive to the shop (get stuck in a jam), choose from hundreds of products, wait in the queue... you get the idea. With FixIts it's quick and easy, and way more fun! Happy green fingers.
It's a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. Time to get ready. We love it. It almost feels like a Mini New Year. It's exciting. We've got some helpful hacks for all you College Goers and Back To Schoolers. Save yourself a bit of time and money by fixing your old stuff, rather than buying new. Enjoy all the moments.
