We love hearing from you when you let us know that you love something and also when you have an issue to resolve. Lee was the first to ask about this:

“I love my Lolo thread tamer, but I have a question. After several months of use – there’s a distinct thumbprint – it feels like the product is dry and a little gritty. Is it just time to replace it?”

Lorna talked to Kismet at LoLo who offered to replace the Thread Tamer but also suggested gently warming and stirring. Lorna relayed that info and here is what Lee did!

“So you can pass along to others, I ended up melting mine down on a candle warmer and adding some more extra-virgin olive oil. It’s worked perfectly since then.”

Thank you so much, Lee, for sharing! And it’s good to know how to keep LoLo’s Thread Tamer supple, no need to replace.

I did something similar to make a very small container of Thread Tamer to travel with. I carefully warmed up the original tin until I could scoop some out to put into a tiny little jar. That’s just one more idea to add in.

More about Thread Tamer from Marie: “I’m so glad I purchased Lolo thread tamer. Received today and immediately tried it.  What a difference as I’m sewing. Smooth, no tangles.  I absolutely love it!!!
Thank you for recommending a great product.”

For your body, you will love LoLo Bars (a moisturizer in a convenient bar), Cuticle Intensives (love these miracle sticks!), Soaps, and LoLo Feet. But don’t just take my word for it…

From Cathy: “I ordered the LOLO bars and LOVE them. It works so well on my split finger tips, I can stitch!”

Cathy also said that it’s amazing how after applying, LoLo doesn’t rub off on the wool or the thread she’s working with. She went from needle-turn appliqué to wool because of eyesight problems. Wool appliqué is “so forgiving,” she says, enjoying her afternoon hand sewing ritual.

Hand sewing is a calming focus when the world might not be calm. I’ve enjoyed evening hand sewing for decades. It’s what we do.
