I have about 40 old clothes pins, wooden ones with the round top if anyone is interested. Got them at an estate sale.

nancy jo .. some fun idea to do with olde clothespins ... (string a line across a window .. and hang vintage aprons) ... string a line across a wall and hang 'vintage' 1800's photos with them .. i've done this in our 'stranger room'. tie up little bundles of about 6 or 8 of them .. with thin 'clothesline-ish' rope .. and put several of these 'sets' in a wooden bowl or tin pail along with some olde lye soap .. cute in a laundry room .. of course .. make dollies with them!!! ... USE them on your clothesline!
you can also make those little 'sets' of clothespins and line and gift them to a child along with a few dolly clothes in a little 'clothes basket' .. makes a sweet present.

Nancy Jo,
Were you looking to trade them for something? I wouldn't mind having some old clothespins, just because I remember using them as a kid and I don't think they make them anymore. What would you like to trade them for?

Oh gosh! I still use mom's clothespins to hang out the wash! I do remember making little ghosts with kleenex and clothespins as a kid and hanging them everywhere in the house at halloween time!

If Aimee does not take them, I'd be interested. I can send some of my handmade items. Do you prefer primtive or turn of the century type stuff?
Thanks for sharing Nancy.
