Thread: Where to buy a round golf-ball sized Swarovski crystal?

I remember seeing these on costumes at Rakkasah and at an online vendor (I frequent artbeads, dreamtime, firemountain) but can't find them anymore. They are Swarovski sew on crystals (flat backed), in a round shape, about golf-ball sized (yes that big!). I know they only make them in 3 colors (black, clear, and AB). Does anyone either have any or know where to order them from?

Try Welcome to Bead Factory
Email them a picture of what you want. They have thousands of items in store that never make it to the web site.

So, umm what are your plans for something like that? I must know!

i bought some while in Egypt, but they're not swarovski..... about 30mm in size. depending upon how many you need, i can maybe sell some to you if you're interested. if so, please email me at xodinahox at yahoo dot com. my pm's don't work.

here's a medallion i made from one of them...

Whoa. I wish I did.

I may take you up on that. I think the ones I was looking for were actually bigger but we will see if I can track them down... hoping to use them as part of a closure for a costume.

I can order wholesale (business) from Rhinestones Unlimited, but I'd have to order a minimum quantity. I'll check to see what sizes they can get me, if you want.

Send me an email at mnmnro@netzero.net

I can find a few different things, The biggest I can find right now is a 40mm but not sew on

The biggest sew on is 30mm I'll email you today.

If you do wholesale can I get a few from you?

If you need help meeting a minimum, I could probably be induced to help out

Ditto on that!

Sure. As long as y'all can agree on what you want me to get, I'd be happy to place an order for you. If she has it in stock, I can get it that day, but often it takes a few days to get it from their warehouse.

I'll get some info for you on shapes and sizes and maybe some pics too.

Thanks Salsabelly for checking into this. I prefer sew-ons. What do others prefer?

I'm sorry- what does 30ss stand for? Not familiar with that measurement.
Thank you so much for helping with this! I'm excited!

I prefer sew-on as well.

Ooops, I didn't even notice that one, because it was at the bottom of the list - usually the biggest ones are there.
That one is only about 6 1/2 mm. I'll remove make a note, because that's confusing. (especially because the price is so different.)
