This cord let me down. It's not as shiny as in the picture. It's about a role that was very difficult to find a starting point. I wanted to use it for the Christmas decorations I make. But it wears out so much that I can't even get it through the hole and even if I cut it off it still has frayed edges. . It doesn't do anything to improve decorations, so I'll try to use it for something else. It's really not worth the money.
