Flat Silver Tinsel

[butler106]

Boys,

Any idea where i could get spool of this cheap flat silver tinsel?

It looks like this, i normal get it on these small spools.

Not a fan of the other tinsels on the market, they seem to be to stiff and you can see the over laps, where as the cheap stuff is thin and strechy so you can wrap it tight and leaves a nice finish.

Someone said to me it may be call "lurex" but not sure if thats true...?

Any help would be great

Cheers

Craig

What your looking for is the mylar or lurex type of tinsel.

Uni 2 tone mylar is perfect gold on 1 side silver on the other.
other colours available too ;D ;D

doug at flymakers stocks it
