Pin Case/Binder

[rdominy]

Does anyone know a good place to purchase a pin case/binder?
I've looked at several places, and they just seem so expensive. Just wanted to know if anyone on here had any better suggestions.
Thanks

I have been asking the same question! I am debating on purchasing this one off ebay: Ebay Pin Binder But was hoping to get a Disney one!

I know down in Disney you can purchase the binder for like $45 + pages for like $5 a piece.

But that one is only $14.99.

How many pins do you have?

You can buy a regular binder and some felt for pages and just punch holes in the felt to fit the binder.
I did that for many years but I used the sturdy felt that is thick as cardboard and doesn't bend with the weight of the pins.
I also bought some of the plastic card holders that hold 12 cards on a page. Cut out some felt to inside the holder (use a baseball card as a template) and put the pin on the felt and the felt inside the card holder. This works great to protect the pins and keep them safe.
If you want to travel with your pins try and find a binder that has a zipper around it. That way if the pin comes off the rubber backing you won't lose it.
If you are keeping your pins at home why not display them instead of putting them into a binder?
I bought a few large corkboards at Walmart and painted the cork with acrylic paint. Then arrange your pins on the corkboard and show them off.
You can do the boring cork color on your corkboard or decorate the board to match your pins. I have a flag painted on the board where I have my patriotic pins, I painted a purple border on the pink background of my Figment pins. etc... My Mickey pins are all on a black background since they look better on that color. I did try red, yellow and white but went back to black. Enjoy pins, they were so much fun when I was collecting and I made some great friends because of pin collecting.

I also use regular binders. I usually purchase them at Staples - I get the 3inch ones that zipper around. I love these, they have a handle and they zip so you do not have to worry about losing pins if they fall off your sheets. I have purchased extra sheets from Disney or I use those foam sheet from stores like Michaels and just 3 hole punch them.
