Borrow a Thumb Tack?

      Hi everyone!


Since this blog is called "Thumb Tacks"  I started to think about all the uses of thumb tacks.  I use them for everything.  In the kitchen I use them to hang pretty dish towels, calenders,  and pumpkin swags for over the windows.  I have even used them to hold bunches of mint leaves and basil leaves when I am drying them.  I like the old fashioned ones that have a flat head.  I believe they hold much better than the push pin kind.

Some people use them for hanging delicate beaded necklaces and odd pieces of jewelry.  Out in the chicken pen I use them to tack up the plastic feed bags in the winter to keep out the snow and cold.  They work great.

I would like to know what you use them for.  Maybe we could all learn something if you care to share your thoughts on this.  I am always looking for new ways to make life a little easier.

Hope your day is filled with precious ideas and suggestions.
