FAQs
How many pins are in the entire set?
You receive 3 packs, with each pack containing between 100 and 144 pins, totaling approximately 300 to 432 pins.
Are these pins rust-proof?
They are made of standard metal and should be kept dry to prevent potential rusting or oxidation.
Can these be used for sewing?
While they are sharp enough to pierce fabric, they are designed primarily for decorative event styling and may be too long for standard sewing tasks.
What is the diameter of the pearl head?
The pearl heads are designed for high visibility and aesthetic appeal, though exact millimeter measurements vary by production batch.
Are these safe to use outdoors?
Yes, they can be used outdoors for events, but ensure they are collected after the event to prevent injury or damage to surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Pin head feels loose
The pearl head is a decorative component; if it feels loose, use the pin in a low-tension area or replace it to ensure the decor remains secure.
Fabric snagging during insertion
Ensure the pin is inserted perpendicular to the weave of the fabric. If snagging persists, verify the pin is not bent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your pins and the safety of your fabrics, follow these guidelines:
- Storage: Keep pins in their original packaging or a pin cushion to prevent accidental injury and keep the points sharp.
- Compatibility: Best suited for medium to heavy-weight fabrics like linen, polyester tablecloths, and burlap. Avoid using them on silk or fine organza to prevent snagging.
- Insertion: Push the pin straight into the fabric to maintain tension. For heavy drapes, insert at an angle to create a stronger hold.
- Care: Wipe with a dry cloth after use if they have been exposed to moisture or outdoor environments to prevent oxidation of the metal shaft.
