Fidget Mats Plus!
Fidget Mats Plus has had many compliments on our mats but a request has been made that we make mats heavier. A design has been created to make an inner panel using pillowcases cut to fit mat size and sectioned into pockets for rice. The panel is then placed in a plastic bag for safety against wetness. This is then sandwiched and sewn between the top and bottom panels of the mat to secure. Our sample has been tried and accepted. Got to give thanks for creativity! Join us each Thursday from 10:00am until noon in the Quadrooms.
