    Apologies if this has been asked already but I did a search and didn't find anything! I'm looking for the cheapest baubles on the High Street to make bauble wreaths with. Outside Dublin so please don't say IKEA :). Just wondering if anyone has noticed any really good value out there?

    Dealz or any of the Eurogiant or Euro2 shops.

    You will also get large plastic tubs of them on the cheap in Homestore & More and also Penneys.

    So a bit of an update on the baubles. Bought some in Tesco, Penneys and Dealz to make the wreath and see what ones were the best quality as well as value for money and I would have to say the Penneys ones were the strongest. The Tesco ones had some colour imperfections and the Dealz caps were not really up to being strung on a wire and broke a lot. Thanks for all the suggestions!
