Have you tried places like Hobbycraft?

ja9 · 29/11/2007 21:24

is that an online place?

haven't tried or local craft shop right enough - that would be too obvious!

Yes they have a site where you can find your nearest store.www.hobbycraft.co.uk
or have you tried WH Smiths,they are usually good for that kind of thing oh or even Wilkinsons have a lot of kids crafty supplies.
