Amazon is an option. I think that users also get floss from Etsy. 🙂(I usually get my floss from Hobby Lobby) |

I get my floss from Amazon, it comes in 100 different colors for a relatively cheap price. The floss works pretty well and gives excellent results in my experience. Local craft shops offer embloidery threads, which are perfect as well but a bit more on the expensive side.

There are multiple different places to find it. Amazon is one of them, but if you don’t want to order online you could likely get some at any craft store near you.

I recently went to the festival of quilts and I found lots of lovely threads there! So I recommend checking out crafting fairs too

Does anyone have any recommendations for in person shops specific to the UK? I've realised I actually have no idea where look outside of Amazon, and it would be nice to go in person to really see the colours properly etc

@Clarisse48 Thanks for your response but Primark (at least in the UK) is a clothes shop so wouldn't sell any sort of craft supplies

@Emmaloves Oops I have no idea then… my friend who lives in London sent me a shopping haul and it was in a primark bag. I can ask her if you want?

Was this a haul of clothes of crafting stuff? If it was crafting stuff it was likely they just used a random bag to send you the haul, and that Primark has no crafting stuff. But maybe they might have an idea of where to get embroidery floss anyway if they make bracelets too? So yeah I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask the! Thank you so much for the offer 🙂

@Emmaloves it was clothes and crafting stuff in the bag. We make bracelets together at overnight camp. In other news, she said it was Amazon where she got the string. Sorry😢

usually, i get mine from either online or in person from a craft store. amazon has some good prices, and my mom has gotten me some stuff off of temu too. its up to personal preference where you should get it, but i find going to the craft store the best.

@Emmaloves I've found that Hobbycraft has looooads of embroidery floss, most of it's DMC and its around £1.50 a piece for the standard stuff 🙂 🙂
