Default Jumbo Eyelets

My favorite embellishment was the SU Jumbo Eyelets and now they are gone. Does anyone know where I can find them somewhere else???

If you prefer the SU eyelets specifically, you might check on Ebay. I've found many retired SU products there through the years. If, however, you simply like the jumbo size, check out Eyelet Outlet or Ebay as well. Good luck!

Thanks Christinesmom2004! I had already looked at Eyelet Outlet and several other sites. So far I haven't had any luck on Ebay either. But again, thanks for the information!!!!

We R Memory Keepers have something called X Large eyelets, those might be what you want. I found them online here, other places probably have them too.

HTH!

Not quite the same thing, but there's a sewing notion that's very similar. Unfortunately, the name escapes me. Grommets, maybe?

Joanne, I am going to order some and see if I can sand the color off of them!! Thanks!! This is the closest so far that I have found to look like SU's.

Linda, they are grommets and I have considered them as well. I was trying to find something that I didn't have to buy more tools to be able to set them. I also found some eyelets in the leather section. Just FYI...The crop-o-dile does NOT work for these. If the ones from We R Memory Keeps don't work I guess I'll also be "new tool" shopping

I've used the pewter/antique copper/antique brass versions of those WRMK ones with the crop-o-dile with no problems Brenda so you should be good to go! If you're looking for ones that are metallics rather than coloured it might be worth seeing if you can hunt those down at a different supplier. I don't think I've ever seen them in bright metallics though, just the antiqued ones I just listed.

I've just added a picture of a project that used the pewter ones so you can see what those looked like - that's a 5" square card so you can guage the size. HTH!

Those are the size. Cute card too! The pewter and antiqued ones are what I am looking for. Your right, I should keep looking. I think sanding the color off isn't really going to be the look I want. I didn't find any non-colored ones at WRMK, but I shall keep looking. Thanks for all the information!!

Default WRMK XL eyelets

Are these the ones you're looking for? This set is called "Cool Cast."
