Honey-Can-Do 100 Pack Round Birch Wood Clothespins, Durable Wood Clips For Hanging Clothes, Pins, And Laundry, For Organizing, Drying & Everyday Use, Practical Hanging Solutions, Reliable Wooden Clips

I bought these to hold up a king size sheet on a skinny rope for a photoshoot backdrop. And it was a day that wind was at least 40mph. These clothes pins worked like magic!I let the sheet just stay there in between shoots and that thing whipped all over the place, but the pins never came off! I was so impressed.These were so perfect to finish off the look I wanted, and it was a huge bonus that they also worked the correct way and were not flimsy.

I purchased these for craft purposes, but given I line dry all my clothes, I decided to review them for laundry purposes too just because I've seen so many mixed reviews on them. It's true these clothespins are not the high quality thicker ones from the early to mid-1900s, you cannot find those anymore, but the quality is pretty much the same as the ones from the 1970s and 1980s. The package does state that they can not handle more than 2 pounds of weight, so for people complaining that they don't work for jeans or heavy blankets, they are not designed for heavy items. It seems that most people who use these for laundry do not use them in the same way people did back in the early 1900s, back then on heavier laundry items, people would soak the clothespins in warm/hot water before using them to loosen them up so they had less risk of snapping, in the winter months they would add salt to the water they soaked the clothespins in, so the clothespins wouldn't stick to the line. While doing this shortens the life of the clothespins, it does make them work better. That being said, these work great for regular clothes, like T-shirts and work exceptionally well for cloth diapers. The gap in the clothespins is literally identical from clothespins made in the 1980s, perhaps some batches of them may differ, that was my experience. The quality of the wood used now is not as high as back in the 1980s so they probably will not last as long as older ones, but that appears to be the case with all types of wood clothespins now, even the ones with the metal clasp.For craft purposes, these work great for the purpose of making clothespins dolls. As I said above, they are identical in size and shape as those from the 1980s, when it was common-place to make clothespins dolls as craft projects in school. Some of them are a little rough and need a bit of sanding, but for the price I can't complain. The round part on the top of the clothespins isn't perfectly round, it's more oval shape, so if you are wanting perfect clothespin dolls with bigger heads, you need to buy the ones they make especially for craft purposes. But when you can get a quantity of 100 of these for the same price as a much smaller pack of the craft ones, these are a good option, especially since kids often screw some of them up and want to start over.

High quality, packaged carefully, and wonderful for crafts. My students made fairies out of them using pipe cleaners and fake flowers. They were thrilled.Good wood, no splintering, smooth surface.

Some of the pins were not formed correctly, they had a flat side but the majority will work for my purpose. I am making nut cracker ornaments with these and the bean pots. Well worth the price. Very study and can be used for the intended purpose.

Nothing to squeeze. They hold your laundry tight. Easy to remove!They were a little brittle when I first got them, and I broke a few just by using them. So I soaked them in vegetable oil for a couple days, wiped them off, and let them air out. Now they work well and really hold the laundry, even on a windy day.

I bought these clothespins to use in making Laundry Room signs to sell, and they did not disappoint! They're just the right size and shape, and are high quality! As you can see in the photos, they are perfect!!!

I use these for drying laundry, they're sturdy, work great

These work better than the newer ones except in rare instances. They never come apart, and they grip tighter.
