I believe this was mentioned a bit ago in the DIY area. Do a search and there are a few threads on it. Long term durability was the issue but it is neat.

Very nice. I made some out of mesh fabric. That stuff is super hard to work with and isn't as nice as the one you made. I am going to the Dollar Store.

Firesong is correct. Been using them for a few years now. They are extra long. I cut them in half. I use them only for my tarp and a season or two is about all they are worth. I can afford a buck a year or so, and I don't cry when one tears. Usually just tie one end off in a knot, and the other gets a cord tie, tape, or piece of shock cord, closure.
