Can anyone pass on information where to buy nice trims to embellish projects. I have been working on some Christmas items and buying grosgrain ribbon etc. by the 3 or 5 meter (I am Canadian) spools costs a small fortune

Some of the discount stores carry these items this time of year as well as drug stores, also craft stores are starting to put them on sale too :wink:

are you looking for an online source or real life source?

I can do either. I have been using some online suppliers lately and have had good luck, but I know that you can sometimes not get what you bargained for. WalMart, etc in this area have very limited fabric departments so therefore the selection leaves alot to be desired
