802chrisg Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 Thanks Mark for this tip. Quess I will be heading to Michael's this weekend. Chris
Mark Aldrich Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) Chris, Just be aware that YOUR Michael's may not carry them. I just ran a check on the Michael's website and they only have two "sticko" items....neither of them Shimmering dots. Mark Edited September 2, 2010 by Mark Aldrich
802chrisg Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Thanks Mark. Good to be aware of this. Will let you know how I made out.
Mark Aldrich Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Posted September 3, 2010 Same here. I have one just down the street so I will probably take the trip tomorrow!
Ron Bell Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Do you know what department they are in? I could see them being in several and Michael's is a big, spread out store.
ghodges Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 I've seen them in the "beading" and "rhinestones" sections, and also in the "scrapbooking" areas. GIL
snelson Posted September 4, 2010 Report Posted September 4, 2010 Looks like I'll be making an expedition to Michael's this weekend! I wonder if those are small enough to use as landing light lenses on 1/72 WWII aircraft. They're vastly cheaper than MV lenses, which I've used for years. MV lenses do tend to yellow a bit over the years..I wonder if these will have the same problem. SN
Mark Aldrich Posted September 4, 2010 Author Report Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) I scored big today. Mine were in the scrap booking section on an end cap with all the other Sticko type items. They had Silver (5 packs that are all mine), pink and gold (grabbed one of those as well). The cool part was I found their website: http://www.eksuccessbrands.com/sticko/products/ They are stocked at Walmart and JoAnns Unfortunately, they do not appear to make these in r-ed, blue, orange or green yet! They do carry a epoxy set of colored ones but they don't have the LENSES look. Mark Edited September 4, 2010 by Mark Aldrich
802chrisg Posted September 5, 2010 Report Posted September 5, 2010 Went to Michael's yesterday. No luck! Will have to try JoAnne's or Walmart. Still looking.
