For years, I've checked every display of safety pins I come across for coilless pins suitable for hanging bodkins on my needle display, tethering coil safety pins, and so forth.
This week I learned that coil-less pins are in the crafty-wafty department with the jewelry findings.
And a few days ago, when I tried to use one to keep a snap with the shirt I intended to sew it to, I found that they are *not* intended to penetrate cloth. The point is very short and obtuse.
That's wonderful to hear that you've discovered coilless pins for your needle display and other needs! It's always a positive experience to find a solution to a long-standing problem, and finding these pins in the crafty-wafty department with jewelry findings must have been such a joy for you. I'm sure it will make a noticeable difference in your organization and make things easier for you. Keep up the good work and congratulations on your find!
