Where do you prefer to get your round handles for a purse? I am going to make this net bag. I would like to use interesting handles. What are your suggestions?

I have seen some of the neatest handles on purses at the thrift stores for about a 1/4 of what they sale for.

My Joanns' has a big selection of hand bag handles. Personally I don't care for round but thats just me. Have fun choosing.

i found some realy cool lucite/plastic rings at the pet store in the bird section and a few online at a couple of pet supply websites. Cheaper than the handles or rings at Wm or Joanns

I too have found purses with awesome handles at the Goodwill.

Why not get a little crafty and make your own? I once used a skipping rope, coat hanger and am now trying welding wire. I reckon you could use stockings too. Anything flexible you can crochet around or thread on to. Platted boot laces could be used aswell. Let us know what you chose to do with the handle.
