does anybody have a place near them that sells the bobbins for winding floss on that does not have the DMC printed on it??? all the stores around here only sell the ones that have the dmc label printed on it and I want them blank so that I can write what I need to on it. If so please could you tell me how much they are plus shipping, I am in the USA so please I would prefer it shipped from the USA just to save on shipping

thank you

I get mine from Micheals and they are blank. I don't know how much they are currently it has been awhile since I bought any but I could check for you. I am in California.

Do you mean with the DMC number on it? I get plastic bobbins that have a very faint imprint of DMC on them. I think the only cardboard ones I have seen say DMC on the cardboard but have a place where you write the number. Its been a while since I have seen any that are just blank. I get mine at Michael's also.

yes it is the cardboard ones that I want, I have some of the plastic ones and don't like them. I just don't want that one spot that has DMC printed on one side and leaves a space for the number. I actually like my numbers on the opposite side. But when I am doing a kit I like to write the number, symbol, name, and dmc number on each bobbin and there just isn't enough room on them with the DMC printed on it. If I it is not for a kit then I can just use the flip side and write just the number but when I am doing a kit I tend to use both sides, yes I'm a little crazy but I like to have all the info at hand for just in case.

I will have a look the next time I am in town and let you know what I can find.

thank you very much.

I have close to 40 on hand. More somewhere else. They are cardboard and plain so if you want them just pm me. I prefer plastic so I tend to just collect them when I'm given them of they come with something.

I buy my plastic ones at Michael's but have bought a 200 pack of the cardboard ones from 123 stitch before, they're plain, nothing written anywhere, and it's from Darice.

thank you everybody, I have found somebody who has several to trade for.

Thank you
