Affordable/Starter Bobbin Lace Materials 

You can also use the dolly clothes pins

I was considering trying thin dowels with beads cut to match the few “real” bobbins I have. Delighted to see that the idea might actually work! I have a date with my dremel tool and not paying $15 a dozen (the project I took on is 80 bobbins, that’s a lot of cash for a beginner!) 🤣

When you're using the clothespins, do you just open them to get a bit more thread as needed?

Thank you so much! im going to make the bobbins now with the beads! are you willing to message me in private to help with some of my questions? I understand if not!!

When making beaded bobbins would it be a good idea to make 2 of the same color and use as a pair, or does it really matter?

Thank you for these original bobbins. I wonder how to best stick the cloth for the cushion....
