Gentle Spiders,
While you're looking for lianna threads, it got me to thinking that you're the 
great resource I need to tap...

For the reproduction renaissance lace I'm doing (have to restart, but that's 
another story), "spangles" were used to embellish the lace.  From the photos 
I've seen, they look just like the little gold discs that are used in 
embroideries from India or Thailand (there are probably others).  Since 
goldwork emboridery has never been very common in the U.S., local craft/hobby 
shops don't stock them.  So, do any of you know of specific sources where I 
could order them?  I did try a Google search - but "little gold discs" isn't 
excactly specific enough. ;-)   (I did search "spangles")  Since this would 
probably be an international order for me, I'd rather order from a known entity 
- thus my plea for a recommendation from you.

Thanks!  One of these days I'll have a photo of something lacey.
