Where can I buy thin birch bark to back a bow?

(1/3) > >>

I actually want to buy a bow that does not come with birch bark, but I want to add it for decoration.

Is there a place where I can find pliable, ready to apply thin birch bark?

Also what kind of glue should I use?

Should it be applied in segments to allow it room to stretch or is just one solid piece on each limb fine?

Thanks!
