Metallic Thread
I am looking for metallic string. I say string because it isn't as thina s thread and not as thick as yarn. Any ideas? Can't find it at Michaels.

Sure! I still don't think that it's what you are looking for.
Are you watching this darn Steelers game? It's ugly so far! I love James Harrision's Tweet: "If I ain't playin', ain't nobody playin'! Lights Outs!!" ROFL!!!

Did you ever find the metallic thread you were looking for? Are you talking about like DMC brand metallic thread? I see it in most places that carry regular DMC Floss. Jo-Ann Fabrics has it and so does Ben Franklin if that is what you are looking for.
