...of giant safety pins!!!

I'm looking for 1.5''-2'' safety/nappy/kilt pins and I can't find them anywhere. :undecided: I need to have them in multiples of 4 if possible.

Can anyone help?

What about Mothercare in packs of 12 or Boots in packs of 6.
You may possibly find them also at the supermarket in the baby section or in a baby shop that does washable nappies (There are a number on-line too)

Hope this helps

or as google told me...

lots of stuff

and then there are... nappy pins

I have seen those ones but I've just got it in my head that you can get bigger sturdier ones - they are to hold the corners of carpet samples up as hammock/shelves for my boys so potentially you could have upward of 3lb of rat bouncing on them.

Maybe the image I have in my head of what I am after are kilt pins

Kilt pins - try dressmaking shops?

I use this shop a fair bit for stuff, they are pretty quick on delivery and postage is only £1 for orders under £10.

I don't think I can help you out (I only own those widgey wee ones)... but may I ask...

What on earth do you need them for?! Is it for holding up your trousers from where you've slimmed away to nowt!?!

*wubbles* I will look anyway just in case!
