Free Swatches, Material Samples etc...

Ask a Question

I'm just intrigued. In the freebies section there are many posts about free material samples or free swatches etc etc. I appreciate we all love a freebie but what does anyone do with these?

People mainly use them for arts and crafts or to get an overall idea on the quality of certain materials they are thinking of buying. I personally think there are far too many of those types of freebies and it would be nice to have more of a variety. But still, everyone does their best. 🙂

I don't think you'll get many answers - I started a topic a few months ago asking for the crafters to share their pics but perhaps the members who take advantage of the fabrics etc don't get involved with the chat section.

angemski I used most of the last samples I got to make Covid hearts for my daughter to take to hospital, but it was difficult as they had to be a pair and sometime the samples are very small, one sample pack all pieces were only 1" square.

I have so many samples of gluedown LVT flooring from trying to decide what colour we want I could probably do the whole living room in samples! Some companies do post an envelope to send them back. Seems such a waste for the ones I couldn't send back that ended up in the bin.
