Do Michaels (The Arts and Craft Store) sell rhinestones?

Question

I need a lot of Rhinestones....!!!!

But I do not have the time to look around...!

Also, how much do you think a lot of rhinestones would cost?

Thanks for your help!

:-)

Answer 1

First, real "rhinestones" are made from glass.  Michaels and other craft stores may have them or not, but they'll be a lot more expensive than the more common plastic "rhinestones" most often sold for crafts.  

The plastic ones will shine and sparkle depending on their cut and quality, but not nearly as brilliantly as true rhinestones.

Answer 2

Yeah! I saw tons and tons of them today.

They cost like $5 for around a hundred rhinestones.

Answer 3

Yes, they have them. A whole beading dept full. I work there.

Answer 4

I do not know what you mean by a lot, but I buy rhinestones by the gross (that's 1,440 pieces) and buying them at Michaels or another craft store would send me to the poor house very quickly.  For the same amount of rhinestones that I purchase for $35-$70 (depending on the size and type of stone), I would pay a minimum of $300-$400 at Michaels (not to mention I probably would not be able to get the quantity I need).  A little packet of about 20 to 25 is about $3 or $4, and they are very limited in their selection.  The place I use is a mail order company, but they ship very quikly.  Here's the link:

I do not know what you are using them for, so I can't make any further recommendations.  Hope this helps.

Answer 5

Yes they do

they have a ton, go to their website and type in Rhinestones in the search box.

Answer 6

Yes they do.  Cost depends on the size, color,quality, and quantity.

Are you bedazzling something?
