Default holographic tinsel

have been looking for alternative sources of holographic tinsel as at some point during winter i want to tie up a load of sparklers, but this stuff came back in one of the google results and i was wandering if any of the it would be suitable for blob patterns ?
or dose anyone have any ideas in where else i could source holographic tinsel in bulk

also dose anyone have a sbs in tying sparklers or are they straight forward to tie.

what do you reckon ?

I think you will find that going the cheap way and buying xmas decorations for tinsel will end up with poor quality sparklers.
Fly tying materials are made to go under water , xmas tree decorations are not

I would recomend using Dave downies Definite advantage silver/pearl sparkler flash for good quality sparklers!

I got my stuff here http://www.wellbanklochans.co.uk/aca...ng_World_.html

Just my opinion but hope it helps
