Mr. Pen Thumb Tack, Flat Push Pins, Silver Thumb Tacks, 500 Pack

I got these for a different reason than most. My baby shower is baby dragon themed and I could not find any cute dragon eggs to use with my centerpieces. I saw on Pinterest where somebody took these flat thumb tack, painted them, and then stuck them into a Styrofoam egg to resemble scales. My first impression with these tacks is that they are uniform. I ordered the silver ones, and they are completely silver and have no discoloration at all. The tack part is nice and sharp. In order to paint them, I lined them up onto a cardboard box. They pierced the cardboard with ease. I had a few left over from my project, so I added them to my cork board and they hold up papers easily without sagging. This pack comes in a 500 count, so it would be perfect for an office space or a classroom as there are plenty. They come in a sturdy plastic holding case so there is no worry about having loose thumb tacks floating around inside your desk drawer. They function just like a thump tack should, and I have had no issues with them. I had at first bought a different brand when I first started this project and noticed that some of the tacks came with the push part broken off from the tack itself. I have NOT had this issue with this brand of thumb tack.

I love Mr Pen products. Everything I order from them is the highest quality. These tacks are so much better than anything I found at Office Depot and Staples; plus, you get more tacks for less money! The surface is larger. The finish color is perfect. You can see the quality just looking at them. The pins are very sturdy and don’t bend easily like most tacks. Whether you want these for a memorial board or arts and crafts, you can’t do better than Mr Pen.

Awesome product i put it hard plastic and attach the hard plastic with the thumbtack to ice cleats so i dont fall again on the ice

These are great tacks for making dragon eggs. Each pack had a few duds - heads separated from their bases or an odd shaped head, but most of the tacks were usable. Good product.

This is a good product for the price and the quantity is very generous - I doubt I'll ever have to buy pins again. On a few occasions, when pushing a pin with my thumb, the post broke through the head and into my thumb. I understand these pins aren't nails, so use caution depending on what kind of material you're pushing these in to.

Excellent thumb tacks. I put them in using a tack hammer and they worked for my project. They are plenty sharp and long enough for posters and such.

Cute and necessary

Thank you for your very kind note sent with silver thumb tacks really strong and nice looking too take care.
