I'll have to check it out in person. Half the battle is finding the hardware. The other half is figuring out how to attach it. Thanks!</p> <p>I thought about that Claudia. I'd have to find the right match though, which could be tricky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-buy-purse-hardware#post-197028 Sun, 08 Aug 2010 21:52:23 +0000 Claudia 197028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another thought is using hardware from a belt, bought cheap from TJMaxx or somewhere. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-buy-purse-hardware#post-197027 Sun, 08 Aug 2010 21:50:06 +0000 Claudia 197027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about buying a used handbag from a thrift or consignment store with some hardware that you like, remove it and then add it on to your bag? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-buy-purse-hardware#post-197023 Sun, 08 Aug 2010 21:43:58 +0000 chewyspaghetti 197023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Craft stores like Joann's have a section of purse hardware. Good luck finding what you need! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-buy-purse-hardware#post-197015 Sun, 08 Aug 2010 21:34:01 +0000 shell 197015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try <a href="http://www.mjtrim.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.mjtrim.com</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-buy-purse-hardware#post-197008 Sun, 08 Aug 2010 21:29:46 +0000 Maya 197008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am at a loss here. You might remember I have a crossbody bag that was shortened too much by the cobbler. The only solution seems to be adding hardware to the strap to lengthen it, but I don't know where to get such a thing. I have googled and gone to the Home Depot and found nothing. I also went to Mood online but didn't find anything there either. </p> <p>I don't know exactly what I'm looking for yet. I was thinking either a gold chain or O rings, but they have to match the existing gold hardware on the bag which is tricky. </p> <p>Where can I find what I"m looking for, or what else can I do to save this bag? </p>
