THE BEST ADHESIVE VELCRO IS HERE

Shoes, coats, trousers, hats, wallets, bags, even for small DIY tasks! There are countless situations where adhesive velcro can help you complete your crafts. If you need it for one of your creations, at Artipistilos we gladly provide you with these products from the best quality brands.

We have adhesive velcro in different types and shapes according to your needs. For instance, double-sided velcros are ideal for hanging pictures on walls without the need to drill. If you need to stick something with extra strength, you can get one of the extra strong adhesive velcros we have here.

We also offer velcro tape so you can cut the strips to the length you desire. Children's coats often use this type of velcro, as they are easier to fasten than buttons or zippers.

If you are looking for round velcro, this is also your place. They are excellent, for example, for creating a closure in a notebook, much easier to do than with buttons.

WHAT IS ADHESIVE VELCRO?

Adhesive velcro is a product originally manufactured by the company of the same name, Velcro Companies, which is a mechanical fastening system called 'hook and loop'.

This system consists of two pieces of very thin plastic. One of them is composed of tiny hooks, while the other is made up of a tangle of synthetic fabric. When joined together, the hooks latch into the loops, staying united unless deliberate force is applied.

The inventor of this technology, George de Mestral, initially used cotton as the material, but the result was not entirely satisfactory. Therefore, he later opted for nylon and polyester. The name 'velcro' comes from the French words 'velours' (velvet) and 'crochet' (hook).

Currently, on the market, there are many different types of velcro or products with velcro applications: straps and loops with velcro, ultra-strong velcro closures, closures and fabric tapes with velcro, all sorts of garments designed with velcro for children (footwear, coats, and backpacks, mainly), as well as all sorts of toys and stuffed animals that include velcro in their design.

WHAT IS A HABERDASHERY?

A haberdashery, also known as a notions or trimmings shop, or a haberdasher's, is a store that sells goods for sewing, knitting and craft needs, along with certain types of clothing.

Haberdasheries are usually small shops located in the center of cities, peripheral neighborhoods, and shopping centers. In them, you can find all types of materials and tools for sewing tasks and other similar activities.

More specifically, they sell sewing items, textile replacements, fabric decorations, hair adornments, costume jewelry, tools (drawn thread work, bobbin lace, crochet, cross-stitch...), accessories for dressing, baby clothes, lingerie, and men's underwear.

The team at Artipistilos is proud to be your trusted online haberdashery. Do not hesitate to contact us for any questions that may arise!
