Displaying PINs

[Queenie]

Hi,

I've started collecting Pins this year and have got a few specials that I'll never trade (one I was bought by friends for my 18th birthday for example.) Has anyone got any nice ways of displaying them? I thought about getting a picture frame and stretching fabric across it then stapling it around the edges but any other ideas would be appreciated.

Also if you know any good/cheap sellers in the UK they'd be appreciated too, all the ones I've come across so far have been American so the shipping costs would be too high.

Thanks!
Sophie

My favorite way is to buy a corkboard and cover it with black or blue felt (i use the stiffened felt from a craft store). Then you can just stick the pins in. The best part is that you can rearrange them easily if you want to add pins or do it differently. I like having my pins out on my walls because I look at them more that way.

Welcome to the world of Disney Pins...

I frame mine with a post card or a piece of clipart. It really depends on the pin though. I find that if you look at a pin you can see the story and I try and theme it with that in mind. And some pins just have a story of thier own... And need a special clipart or picture.
