A little voice told me...

...when in need, turn to craftgrrls.

I'm desperately seeking a couple of strings of teeny, tiny, wee, widdle Christmas lightbulbs - smaller than what is known as mini-lights. I have a small tree decoration that's only about eight inches high that I want to decorate as a gift. I have seen these, mostly in necklace form, around the necks of tacky but kind people who really, REALLY enjoy the holiday to its fullest. The lightbulbs themselves are teensy - maybe 1/4" in length. I have had no problem finding the string of lights, but I need one that actually lights up, probably by a tiny battery. I have been looking everywhere in my corner of the world and am turning up nothing.

My questions are these:

a) does anyone here have one of these tiny strings of bulbs that they no longer need and would be willing to sell out of the goodness of their heart?
b) has anyone seen these around anywhere or know that they exist?
c) would anyone be willing to let me reimburse you and send me one ASAP?
d) is anyone willing to keep their eyes peeled for such a creature?

Thanks in advance,
Sara

P.S. I know what you're thinking - but I can't shop online... no credit card. Boo, hiss.
