Baker’s twine has a classic look to it that’s unmistakable. White and another color are always spun together to create a fun, candy-striped look. This red and white baker’s twine hemp cord is perfect for tying up gift-wrap or making a sweet DIY Valentine’s Day gift for your sweetheart. Whether you’re picking a bouquet of wild flowers and tying a red and white bow around their stems, or you’re weaving a bracelet or other crafty gift, this cord’s colors symbolize love and affection.

Red is the hottest of the warm colors. It symbolizes passion, love, lust, and violence, making it a good lover’s color but also a bit dangerous. When it’s entwined with the purity of white, though, it takes on a softer note and becomes a gentler version of itself. If you’re doing bead work with this beautiful hemp cord, you can give it a patriotic theme by adding white or you can make it whimsical and romantic with pink.
