Necklace beads/ thread-where to buy?
Posted by Kim11 (57 days ago)
Where can I buy jewellry making supplies? I am also looking for different types of thread or embroidery thread. I don't want to go to Spotlight in Mega box. Iknow Sham Shui po had some beads etc but not sure exactly where and I only need a few, not wholesale. Is there anywhere in Central or TST that sell things like this?
Thanks

You can usually buy embroidery thread in the funny little stalls in local wet-markets - the multi-story markets in each district, often with a library etc on an upper floor. There are all kind of stalls with thread, some with tailors too.
I've also bought those supplies in stationery shops. The kind that often have beachballs hanging out the front but probably have lanterns this week. Those little shops usually have a craft section with beads, thread, fimo, playdough etc. Cheap.

Definately Sham Shui Po, I was up there for the first time last week for the same things. Many shops selling millions of beads, threads, buttins etc, and sold by the weight so you can buy as many or as few as you want. Try Kweilin St, towards the Cheung Sha Wan rd end.
