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

Bet you can't wait to get away? It's been a busy time, huh? You totally deserve it. Which is why, in the fun build up to packing, you don't want to waste any time getting in new summer stuff. Just FixIts any last-minute bits (like these ideas below). And don't forget to pack your FixIts sticks for any quick edits away from home.
FixIts is amazing for sorting out your camp gear, whether you're getting in a quick weekend away, organising a spontaneous picnic, or heading off to a festival. Spruce up your stuff, rather than replace, recycle or bin it. It saves you time and money, and helps out nature a bit too.
We know how it is. Football's on the telly, the Olympics are round the corner. After all that rain, it's finally good enough to go outside and do something fun yourself, maybe even sporty, except... All the stuff in your shed's a bit shoddy. Cobwebs everywhere. You dust it all off. Your bike helmet's seen better days. The cricket set's two bails short of an over. Your favourite swimming goggles (which shouldn't even be in the shed) are broken. Be a good sport, don't replace this stuff. Just FixIts it. It saves you time and money. Plus you're helping the planet a bit, too.
