AFT inner tent clips: where to buy them?

Hi everyone.
Thanks to Geoff Mather for the design of the Bongo inner tent. I am trying to replicate this, and have got as far as assembling the pattern. If you don't fancy sewing the tent yourself, there are fabric shops that will do it for you, for a fee!

As suggested, I tried Dunelm Mill for the acrylic Xmas decoration clips; but they don't sell them anymore.

Does anyone know of another supplier?

These look similar/identical:

Has anyone bought these recently?

Many thanks!

All best wishes,

Leon

If you're totally stuck, here's another idea because I couldn't get any of those clips.

I sewed some brass curtain rings on the liner, and bought hook magnets and some magnetic strip for the roof (as the metal strip on the roof does not attract a magnet). It's a really quick attach/detach that way (we don't leave the liner in the roof all the time).

These folk are as good as any for magnets http://www.first4magnets.com/?gclid=CM- ... tAodAFgA6w

Sounds a good idea there Alison, the links in the original are to the items we use as well, we bought a pack the other day as well partly for decorations and a few spares for the van, not quite sure where we saw them now, but there handy for several sorts of clippy things!
