Thank you Rich and knmagic. I shall continue the search as I really enjoy performing this and the velvet cord makes the handling more convincing than the other materials I have tried.Rich, I have sent a PM.
Life is too important to take seriously.

Well I found the best place to find beautiful velvet cord was a local fabric store. I like to go to the Rag Shop, its very cheap and good stuff!

Well, if anyone can find GREEN (lime) velvet cord, I am certainly interested. So far, all I have found is black, ruby red, and very dark green. White would be okay--I would just have to dye it green.

Thanks,

Paul (I wonder why he wants) Green

I can't find velvet cords anywhere, I have even gone to fabric stores.
You know you are a magician when you have boxes full of lecture notes you have never read, but still are excited about going out and buying more.

Get a shoelace with sparkles.
Just say it's from your Elvis Presley or Elton John collection.

You can easily have any color of velvet turned into a cord by having a person you owns a sewing machine sew a length of it together with the fuzzy on the inside then its a matter of working it with a coathanger inside out

It's not a velvet cord, it's a magic rope. It belonged to Uncle <insert name here> who was a notorious <black magician, murderer(he strangled people with it),or clown(he strangled people with it, just kidding). Because of the tragedy/magic in its past it has some unusual qualities. Or something like that is what I would use.Smile

Isn't 'You discuss velvet cord with others' on the list of 'You know you're a magician when...' ? Smile
