Hey peeps,

Don't know if any of you can help me but here goes! I'm looking for a wooden beaded bracelet thats similar to the one below, but I'm not sure of where to go to find one!

My mate and myself bought ours in Australia but he unfortunately lost his - so I'm going to try and get him a new one as part of his xmas present.

Cheers! ;)

Shame you don't live in London, I'm sure theres a shop in Covent Garden that does stuff like that.

Hope that helps - In some way

market stalls and craft fairs all over the country sell that sort of thing. not sure if this helps, but several local piecing places where i live have lots of beady things in, so maybe you should pop into your local specialist piecing studio and see what jewrelly they have.

Damn and I just missed the Lincoln Xmas fair by two days! :roll:

Do any of the mainstream shops (i.e. Topman etc.) happen to do anything like this? I wouldn't know I don't shop in those sort of places

Tried any Australian outlets that might sell it?

Ice Nine if you happen to live near Nottingham.

Or Sun Emporium if you live near Lougborough.

Hell, there all over the place!

You can pick these up from H&M, Allders, M&S, etc, etc - they're not hard to find...although the better ones are usually found in the surfing shops.
Good Lord!
