Overview
A pair of original retail packages of 'Glam Trimz' novelty eyelash fringe trim in vibrant turquoise and mango orange. Each package contains 3 yards of 3-inch wide, highly textured polyester trim designed for home decor, crafting, and fashion embellishments.
Story
Released in 2005, these vibrant trims capture the playful, texture-obsessed aesthetic of the early 2000s crafting boom. They represent the final years of Springs Industries' historic consumer retail presence before shifting away from home sewing markets.
Maker / Origin
Founded in 1887 in South Carolina, Springs Industries grew into a massive textile empire famous for its Springmaid sheets and consumer fabrics. By the early 2000s, the company adapted to the DIY crafting craze with novelty lines like 'Glam Trimz' before eventually merging and transitioning out of consumer retail.
Condition & Value
Both packages are in excellent, unused condition on their original cardboard hanger cards. The trim is clean, retains its original fluffiness, and the packaging shows only minor shelf wear. Excellent preservation of the original retail presentation.
