Does anyone know what this type of fastener is called? I'm looking for some and I don't know what to search for. The picture isn't great as I enlarged it from on in Projects, but I hope it is recognisable.

Hey there Sue! Don't suppose it's this sort of thing??? I have search a little but so far this is the closest thing. It reminds me of a fasteneer I had on my school bag when I was in primary school. He he.http://www.etsy.com/listing/125111073/vintage-streamline-c369-belt-buckle
Good luck with your search!

Here are a couple links to show you the type of latch in your photo. At least they will give you more ideas for the terminology to search. (For the 2nd link - scroll down just about halfway. They come in various designs and colors.)
Hope this helps.

I found them on ebay,had to order from China. I forget what they are called. I searched high and low for them and got my order. They are in the same bag they arrived in and I never did get around to using them. But when i do I know where they are.
