   You need to look under Upholstery Supplies. Mails like that are sold in some hardware stores but if it's bordering the covering, it's an upholstery item. A lot of times, the nails come in a long strip and you just line them up and start nailing away.

   You are talking about the bright brass domed nails, right? Use a plastic hammer to drive them in - a metal hammer will dent/scratch them.

   If you are talking about "decorative nails," you can find a limited selection in small packs at fabric stores such as JoAnn's and Hancock.If you need something really specific, try the upholstery supply houses such as http://www.sunshinefoam.com/

   I'm not the one who needs them and I have an account at an upholstery supply co already. Actually, my dad opened his account in the late '40s and when I started needing things like that, I opened mine.
