Buckrum for men's ties
Has anyone made a man's tie? What did you use for the inside? The store bought one's have a buckrum inside, but I don't know where to buy it or what weight I should use. Any help would be appreciated.

I was going to give you a link to millinery supply company but it appears their website it gone. If you can find a place that sells millinery supplies, you can get buckram. Hancocks used to have it in some of their stores. Sadly, they're gone.

If I remember correctly, the name is "nainsook." My spelling may be off, of course. When I used to make my own ties, I got the fabric at Hancock's. Since they are gone now, I would recommend finding a specialty fabric center that would carry more designer fabrics. The first one that comes to mind is High Fashion here in Houston. I don't recall seeing the fabric at any of the JoAnn's or Hobby Lobby stores.
