Acrylic Gemstones

Does anyone know anyhere that I could get hold of like a bag of the gemstones that are like acrylic i think with the flat mirrored back? Like all different colours?

Ive looked on ebay and in hobbycraft but can't find anything.

Thank-you xx

Pretty much any craft store should have what you're looking for. Check the jewelry sections, or the t-shirt decorating section(by fabric paints and iron ons), and if in doubt, ask the person working there. They'll be able to point you to the right aisle, and if not, to a place that does sell them.

Dollarama has them in heaps. I think the US equivalent is Dollar General.

I live in the UK lol.

Hehehe.

Yeah, I always figured it should be "Dollar-Rama", but the weird Montreal guy who started the chain decided "Dollarama" was a better title. I guess because it took less ink to print. *shrug*

I've seen them in the pound shop but they're the ones that already have a sticky back.
But as Liz said they should have them in arts & craft stores : )

Depending on what one needs them for, a sticky back would work for most things.

I put them in my "goblin horn" necklaces. I just bake them right into the clay. It stinks (and is likely toxic...just open the windows...LOL), but they look SOOOOOO cool!

I too want to find some website that has good rinestones. You know not crystal, but not cheap looking. I use a lot in my jewellery and want them in bulk. Last time I got them at the store(not in bulk) I spent $95! On rinestones! And I'm almost out again!

Places like John Lewis or Jenners have them. Also try kids shops like the early learning centre.

Somewhere like Hobbycraft will have them

They ship internationally, and it looks like there's a decent variety from just glancing at it.

Thanks my lovelies, Kiki Hobbycraft didnt have any but ill look in JL next time im at work!!

I got ones...if you go in to places like john lewis...
I don't know what it's called, the brand that is but it's possibly Bits & Bobs or something. It's like a white cardboard thing with blue writing on it with the clear plastic bag stapled to it. They have various types of beads and stuff, just those cheap plastic kids ones but I'm pretty sure mine were from them.
