pin trading help?

[LittleMissMusical]

so i started pin trading two years ago, and the bulletin board i have is now completely filled with pins, and i don't have room for a bigger one! i love looking at them daily and would love to find a way to keep them all in one place, and keep them displayed so i can still look at them on a daily basis. any suggestions?

thanks,
Megan

We keep ours in large shadow boxes. Each persons box has a picture of their favorite part of WDW in the center and the pins surround that. We have one wall in our hallway that is all disney pins and we can enjoy them everyday. The glass keeps them free of dust but easy to access.

We bought an inexpensive black fleece blanket from Ikea with a scalloped edge. Cut it down to the size we wanted. Folded in half so scalloped edges were at bottom. Sewed across top to make a tunnel for the dowel rod to slide through. Put a dowel rod through the top. Displayed all our pins. Room for more. Pins look great. Everyone always loves looking at our pins. Makes a nice wall piece. I will try to remember to come back later and add a pic. On my phone right now.

We used to keep our on foam board. I bought the black ones from Wal Mart and just stuck the pins in them. I had different boards for different collections, they were really pretty and looked very nice around the house.

Since then I've moved them into frames, by collection. It's time consuming and expensive but they are gorgeous.

Good luck with your collection!

I was wondering if you can post a picture of one of the shadow boxes with a picture in the middle. This sounds like a great idea and would like to see an example. Or if its not to much maybe you can send me an email at mrdrift @ verizon.net
