I'm looking for a place in the Boston area that has a good selection of shell buttons. Not ones that are shell on top and plastic underneath, but actual shell through and through. I want to incorporate them into my beadwork by using them as clasps.

I stopped by Fabric Place in Woburn, but they only had the plastic-backed ones, and they were huge anyway. Does Beadworks carry anything like this?

gah, there's a place in Cambridge, I don't know if that's where you're thinking of, but it has a lot of neat stuff and very little ickyplastic.

Beadworks is in the Harvard Square area, there's also one in downtown near...Copley? I forget. Where is this place of which you speak?

Someone pointed me to The Windsor Button Shop, which may be exactly what I need. It may also be horribly expensive. :-)
