Any ideas on reasonably priced suppliers of blank wooden shapes, primarily gingerbread, stars and hearts?

I've found loads in the states but I've no experience of buying overseas and am a bit dubious about shipping?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.;)

Try here (http://www.calicocrafts.co.uk/acatalog/Laras_Crafts_Wood_Parts.html)or ebay is a good source too

There's also someone on the forum who makes them but I can't remember his name - when I do I'll let you know!

Try www.dalescraft.com (http://www.dalescraft.com) which is a local family-run business in the UK. The guy who runs it, Colin, has always been extremely helpful to me. He also sells on Ebay if needed.

Otherwise I would recommend some of the Ebay sellers as there are loads out there.

here is one site I think I have others..........when I go back home in the spring I will be bring back cutouts.They are really hard to find here. I have also though about buying a scroll saw and doing my own.If you think you are going to use a lot of cutouts you may think of the same thing

I buy a lot of mine, i.e wooden stars and hearts mainly, through Calico crafts, especially when they have their sales, and also a lot through various sellers on E-Bay, and make some myself but sometimes time doesn't allow for that and its cheaper to buy them in.

Thanks everyone some great links and ideas, think I mught take the plunge and buy off ebay (it scares me a bit) and I'm not far from Calico crafts and may visit them in the very near future.

although primarily aimed at kids, i think that baker ross /yellow moon do some, and maybe craft creations too.

Redmaxi - just let him know you want them drilled when you order, or send him a message through his ebay shop (http://stores.ebay.co.uk/kipper-workshop-crafts)
