I purchased some of these from you CBGitty. They work great, plus the price was good, and it's always convenient and easy making a purchase from your site.

Hello all, I have been adding more varieties of larger curtain grommets in my shop. Have several sizes in brass, copper and nickel, and just ordered a 1.5" nickel variety today. I also have smaller standard grommets, and those brass candle cup grommets that are in the photo above. Check out my site: http://www.cbgitty.com/cubecart/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=26

I myself use pvc washers, I think there a washer. there alot like the grommets but plastic so i paint them what ever color and glue em in. I get `em for 25 cents a piece
Most hardware stores have a shelf of "odd parts" arranged in little drawers. That's where most of 'em have the big grommets..Usually up to 1" or so. These parts bins are a treasure trove; I always look through them.
Another handy sound-hole trim is "computer grommets" these are plastic stepped rings up to about 1 1/2" diameter. Usually, you can get them in black, silver, gold, or a dumb gray (that you could paint...). They work quite well as trim on larger soundholes.

Most craft stores have them in the candle section.

There are a few suggestions in these old discussions which are worth looking at.
