Here in England, pins have sharp points and pegs have nasty springs to trap your fingers! Unless of course you have the old style dolly pegs like the ones in the first picture.
pegs are the name of clothes pins in other courtries, like England. Aren't they cute, going to make some now.
They are used as note holders,Just cut a slit in the back,insert a clothes pin and add a magnet, or use as a chip clip to hold bags closed.
Thank you bevintex, I kept thinking Pegs..not clothes pins. They sure are cute.
