I am looking for the name and a source of the white 'filler' beads/pelts used in children's game "eye spy bag" as seen at this link: http://www.enasco.com/earlylearning/ProductDetail.do?sku=SN01699J I would like to make some of the bags, but cannot find a source of the beads. So, I would like to a)know the name of the beads- or a common name, b)have a comparison of online sources (preferrable 3) c) include the minimum order quantity and price of the items at each online source | |

Hello tricot-ga! Thank you again for thinking of me for this question. Luckily, my sister-in-law recently made these as gifts for our children, so I asked her about the material she used. She tells me (reluctantly?family trade secret!) that they are called Poly-PelletsÒ and are often used to stuff dolls as well (thus, ?doll pellets? can also be used). Here is the official site for Poly-PelletsÒ and related products: http://www.poly-fil.com/pellets.asp. There is a nice comparison on that site of branded Poly-PelletsÒ and generic doll pellets. My sister-in-law personally bought them at Michael?s (see the product information at: http://www.michaels.com/art/online/displayProductPage?productNum=nw0201). You cannot purchase them online from Michael?s, however. They would like you to use one of their ?brick-and-mortar? stores instead. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Here are some online purchasing options for you: You can purchase 25-lb bags of Poly-PelletsÒ for $41.85. The price drops as you buy multiple bags. http://www.batt-mart.com/site/490194/product/FPC-PP-25-BULK Both 2-lb bags and 25-lb bags of Poly-PelletsÒ are available at the following site. The 2-lb bags are $4.95 and the 25-lb bags are $54.95. http://www.roseannsdolls.com/fapocrpo.html This site has 5-lb and 50-lb bags available. The 5-lb bags start at $10.75 and there are volume discounts if you buy 5 or 10 bags. The 50-lb bags are $83. http://www.nationalartcraft.com/subcategory.asp?gid=8&cid=194&scid=534 Doll pellets at this site are $4.30 for a 1-lb bag. http://www.thecalicocat.com/dollnotions.htm You can find doll pellets at this site. A 2-lb bag is $3.15. http://store.quilting-warehouse.com/059821.html - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I hope that this information is helpful to you. Good luck with your projects! I have a friend who has been thinking of making these for her nieces and nephews, so I?m excited to share this information with her! If you have any need of further clarification, please let me know how I can help. Thank you again for thinking of me! Sincerely, Boquinha-ga Search terms: Poly-pellets Doll pellets |
