Default Ring Cushion Suppliers

Can anyone recommend any good ring cushion suppliers?

I've looked at a few different companies online, and the only ring cushion I could find that I actually like costs £40. I can afford it, but think its slightly OTT....

Was just about to post for this too. I haven't been able to find one I like at all so will have to keep looking.

I'm wondering how hard it would be to make one. I might ask my mum as she's quite handy at sewing.

I'll let you know if I see anything nice.

Thanks Teresa!

It would be nice if your mum was able to make one, though I will refrain from asking my mum, it could end up looking like a chewed up sock! LOL

I am going to have a look on Ebay also I think...

Some of the ones on here are quite nice but they are almost £40 too. They are some of the nicer ones I've seen.

There are some lovely ones on here but they are all around £100 so a bit expensvie.

Sorry to ask but why do you need ring cushions? What are they for.....Doesnt best man give rings to vicar who rest them on page of Bible or give to groom in Civil service?? Sorry to ask just never heard of it before??

Mazz its an american thing again. Traditionaly they are put on the bible or prayer book and most people have them frantically fished out of one of the best mans pockets . Maybe a ring cushion is better for the brides sanity. From what I can work out they are just cushions with ribbons for tying on the rings....maybe cheaper to buy a nice cushion and sew on the ribbons yourself

I always assumed you had a ring cushion... LOL... but, I managed to get one sorted (I think) ... I have contacted a Lady on Ebay who makes things for a living, and have asked her to make one for me....

We might not bother with the ring cushion and just hope the best man looks after them!!

I guess they aren't really necessary... I just want one I guess cos they look nice, and it will be a nice keepsake.
