How many pins are in the glass jar?

Can I use these on delicate silk or satin?
While the pins are high quality, always test on a scrap piece of fabric first to ensure the gauge of the pin does not damage the weave.

Troubleshooting
Pin tip feels dull
Discard the specific pin if the point is damaged to avoid snagging your fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Hemline Gold Safety Pins in top condition, ensure you select the appropriate size for your fabric thickness to avoid stretching the wire. When not in use, always return the pins to the provided glass jar to keep them moisture-free. If you find the pins become dusty or lose their shine, simply wipe them with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not soak the pins in water or harsh cleaning chemicals, as this may degrade the gold-coated finish over time. The jar is designed for easy access, but ensure the lid is screwed on tightly if transporting your sewing kit to prevent spills.
