where do you find the rings for your floss tags?

Gwen said...

Carol,
The floss tag is very cute.
I am in awe of your stitching accomplishments. That I should be so productive.

Joan:I have found the rings at Walmart (stationary/school supply section) and I am sure you can find them at an office supply store (Office Max/Depot).
