We use to have a store in Ardmore that you could find the good ones but Lowes put it out of business. I want the wood spring ones that can actually hold clothes on the line even in our Oklahoma winds.

They are hard to find, Nancy. I've picked some up at the thrift stores. Good luck finding them. Marly

Nancy These are the best clothespins, hands down!~ They are a bit pricier, but they will not rust, and they hold tight, tight, tight! I have hung my clothes for years, and have gone through oodles of wooden pins (some break, some rust, some stain clothes) These pins have lasted for 3 years, going strong, no breaks, no rust. http://www.leevalley.com/US/garden/page.aspx?p=69724&cat=2,42194,67373

The kind I am looking for have the spring in them. The older ones were strong, the new ones are way to weak. Thank you Teri :)
