Does anyone know a good, reasonably priced supplier for decorative nail heads.

With shipping costs factored in, you might be better off paying a little more locally.
Do you just need one box?

We're doing more and more work for designers and quite often they want decorative nail heads. I've got some samples from a company called D'Kei but, they are pretty high priced. Looking for other suppliers. Often it is just a box at a time. Don't mind the shipping but, feel like the nails themselves are too steep.

A&A fabrics in Glenwood, Ark. is probably about as cheap as anyone. But, their selection is limited.

Here is the most comprehensive nailhead catalog that I've seen anywhere:

You'll have to call for pricing (probably not cheap)

But for the basics, try A&A

I've been ordering from Massasoit/Tackband for several years.

Their product line doesn't show the decorative nail heads but I know they sell them.
The more you buy the lower the price.
Good Luck.

I know its in the U.K. but these guys do loads of styles. They now do powder coated ones too although they are tough to get in by hand with a nylon tipped hammer and are suited to a gun.
