The only item they offered was, what they call, a pinball bracelet. Is that what you used? If so, how did you close the bracelet around the pinball?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326429105666772831.post-39063786531860017802011-08-10T16:52:11.570-07:002011-08-10T16:52:11.570-07:00Elle--I used a little over two skeins of brown thr...Elle--I used a little over two skeins of brown thread and one of green and pink. I accidentally tangled the brown pretty badly when I was separating it, so I needed a third skein. Oops :)<br /><br />Lynn Kathleen--I bought the ring in Williamsburg. Unfortunately, they don't sell them online. I'm sure they could help you if you emailed-- customerservice@WilliamsburgMarketplace.com or called them-- 1-800-446-9240Katherine Caron-Greighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023378555632762445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326429105666772831.post-54546409126806016212011-08-10T16:38:36.153-07:002011-08-10T16:38:36.153-07:00I'm not a blogger, but trying to figure out ho...I'm not a blogger, but trying to figure out how to contact you...I find your pinball information fascinating- a lovely job, indeed.

Right where I put the little card, actually. It works quite well. <br /><br />Since the next, uh, 7, I'm making will be without rings, I'm sure there'll be pictures!Katherine Caron-Greighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023378555632762445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326429105666772831.post-24198462647199064342011-06-22T03:04:56.806-07:002011-06-22T03:04:56.806-07:00These are fascinating...
