Thread: Box hardware

  1. #1

    Box hardware

    OK like I said I'm making these little boxes and need hardware. I usually go to HD and get the cheap little hinges and stuff but I'd like to find a source for something better. Anyone know a good place to get jewelry box hinges and clasps?

    Thanks Mike looks like they both have some in between stuff and they both have stores within 45 miles of me. Looks like a bike ride if my bike ever gets back from the shop

    I found a place in Canada http://www.smallboxhardware.com/ that has a pretty good selection but unless you buy a lot the shipping costs a lot. Not worth it for 2 or 3 items.
