Hi Owners! :)
Here are some stores I frequented to buy stuff and materials for my resin kids. Be it fabric, accessories, and props if you know where to look you can say goodbye to online shopping and save some money! ( I only buy my kids shoes from the internet XDD )
1. Wellmanson's in Quiapo and Divisoria - for your beading supplies, accessories, chains, necklaces, etc this store has it! I prefer the Quiapo branch because it is bigger and has more supplies.
2. Bonseng, Divisoria - Bonseng or Bonsen in Tabora Street. I buy mini buttons, automatic buttons, zipper, sewing supplies here. On my recent trips I even bought an elastic string that I used to re-string Simone ( they only have the msd sized though.)
3. Tabora Street in Divisoria - here you can buy your sewing supplies from laces,ribbons,buttons,props,zipper,cords...you name it they almost always HAVE it!
4. Ilaya Street - I buy fabrics here! If you are lucky you can buy a good fabric for as low as 20pesos/yard. You have to know where to look and always make tawad. XDD
5. 168 Mall - it is a big mall! I am sure you can find something suitable for your resin kids.
6. Clipper - they have little things, gift items and souvenirs that fits any scale. Some branch have the Mac Book mirror for 300 pesos.
7. Papemelroti - for paper products that's good to use for picture backgrounds. I go to Papemelroti and let my imagination guide me on where I can use their items. :)
8. Saizen - the 85 pesos store! yay! You can buy a lot of items here that you can use for your resin kids. My favourite is the melamine sponge and the gorgeous eye lashes!
9. Craft Store - any craft store that sells items and stuff for scrap books. Scrap booking materials are looove!
10. any Hard Ware Store - they sell hooks and the wire I use for my girl's head band :)
11. and last on my list is my Neighborhood Ukay Ukay - go there! Buy something for you ( if you are the type who loves to shop clothes in ukay ukay! I DO! ) and for your resin kids! The fabrics are superb and some details are to die for!
I hope this post helps some of you and if you have a store to suggest feel free to comment and share! :)
