    Annika - I love your new book. I just recently started playing around with micro macrame. I would love to make your "Secret Garden Bracelet" as a gift for a friend. However, I'm having trouble finding a rectangular slider similar to the one used in your project. Would you mind sharing your resource for a similar slider? Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful projects. Linda

    I found the ones I used at JoAnn Fabrics and Ben Franklins and Michaels. You might try:

    or

    or

    http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m38.l1313&_nkw=crystal+slider&_sacat=See-All-Categories

    Make sure the "slider" has two sets of holes underneath.

    Also - here's one really close in design/color to the one used in the book:

    Hope that helps,
