plastic & metal supplies?

    plastic & metal supplies?
    on: March 06, 2009, 02:14:51 AM
    Hey everyone, I am learning so much from reading this forum!  Anyway, I have been searching for the last two hours for an online store where I can purchase belt buckles.  I purchased just one buckle the other day when I was checking out at the sewing store and love my belt, so now I need some more Smiley  The store sold the buckle for $5 and I was wondering if anyone knew of any online stores where you can purchase plastic hardware cheaper?  I also make dog collars and found a site that sells those supplies in bulk cheaper than in the stores so maybe there is something I just cannot find Smiley

    Also, completely unrelated to that... one of the little girls I watch has been begging me to make her a head band.  I was going to go to the store, buy a readymade headband and strip the fabric but then I thought that maybe y'all had a much better idea as to where I can find the plastic headband shells?  (I don't actually know what you would call them! Smiley

    Thanks!

      Try searching for "leather craft supplies" to find belt buckles.

        i made a ribbon belt for a 1940's dress pattern and it turned out really cute.  the prices weren't too bad and you might be able to get a bulk discount.  not really sure.
