So, go buy a container of Orbit ( I like the white bubblemint.... I like to chew & blow bubbles as I sew) Happy Sewing....................Donna, The Rustic Quilter
I buy Eclipse gum in those little containers. Never thought to save them. I have one in my car almost empty. I'll have to go save it. That would be great on my table where I hand sew, I always leave strings on the arm of the chair. Thanks for the idea. Oh how many things one could store in them.
