Default Oriental Trading

Just got my Oriental Trading catalog in the mail and thought that I had never seen it mentioned as a possible good cheap source of supplies on this site... they have things like plain pot holders for $10 a dozen, blank metal dogtags for $3.00 a dozen, plastic ABC beads for $4 for 500 etc... I have sometimes been a bit disappointed at the quality but most of the time the products work quite well for what I intend to use them for... AND if you have kids they love the stuff in this catalog... Great cheap craft kits for them... www.orientaltrading.com

I received a Craft Catalog from Oriental Trading company, and they had blank, spiral bound notepads. I thought those would make cute gifts (after decorating, of course!). They had both square and round ones, as well as blank spiral bound notebooks!

I'm sure that if you went on the website, you could find these items.

I hadn't thought of them as a stamping resource--but what an awesome idea!! Thanks for sharing! Now, I just have to be on the lookout for a catalog--which shouldn't take long. I think they send them out about once a week

They have some Plastic word beads (1/2 - 1") in this catalog that I'm going to try....In the past i have used their letter beads, stretchie cord, glass ladybugs.... they were all great..
I did try their pin backs but really did not like them... They were worth just about what I paid for them and I decided that I needed to buy them at AC Moore.

OMG. I ordered from the in Sept. and Oct. -ouch! I got all kinds of stuff. What kooky yet afordable stuff they have. Some of the things I buy are not stamping related but are crafty type things. I bought beads, bracelet kits, tags, metal eyelet tags, etc... they have neat pens and extras. what a neat catty.

You know what's funny? OTC distribution in here in Omaha...and it STILL took a couple weeks to get my order! They must be bombed right now with orders!

Hi I have always wanted to order from them. I believe if you spend $60 with them right now you get free shipping. I just haven't done it yet...Looks like fun stuff!!!!
