Organize the Bulletin Board
on January 1, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
I use these clear pushpins in combination with the colored mini-binder clips to organize my home and office bulletin boards. The clear pushpins blend into the bulletin board and the mini-clips add cheery color all the while making it so much simpler to group and organize information you need to keep easily handy. I started doing this after I finally had had enough of papers always falling off the bulletin board because I was always trying to stick the pushpin through too much paper and also I never could find anything because I would just stick it anywhere a pushpin would hold.
I purchased the clear push pins for decorating around my house at the holidays. I like the clear color because they can not be seen when items are hung around them such as decorations. he color push pins are an eye score when your decorating. One thing that I do not like about the plastic push pins is that they are sometines difficult to push into plastered walls. If you try to hammer the push pin into the wall the top if the pin will break off making it impossible to hold any decorations on the push pin. I wish that they made this style push pin with a metal head that could be hammered into the wall. This would make life so much easier and make my finger feel so much better after decorating for hours!
I love using these push pins. I use them for both my business and personal use. I like that they don't break very easy and the pin itself is not dull. I like using the clear pins because whatever it is that I'm using them for looks very organized and neat. I've found that the staples brand is less expensive then those name brand ones and work just as well if not better. Many times I have purchased them with a brand name and found that the plastic part that is used to push the pin in breaks easily which the staples brand doesn't.
These are used to put up decorations at Birthdays Christmas and Halloween. They are easy to use so no hammer to have to use and easy to remove. Being clear they don't show either to take away from the decorations being hung up. Also great for cork boards that keep them looking neater and not a bunch of different colors all over the board (I'm picky that way) They are very sturdy and hold up use after use do don't have to buy as large an amount for home use. Larger amounts would be better for business though. The clear ones are the only ones I buy and I recomend them to others for the reasons I use them stated above.
