What uses do you make of a clothes pin?

I use a clothespin to pin my grocery list to the top of the shopping cart basket. That way it doesn’t get lost before I get all I need.

I use them to hang up the cloths on my cloths line.

I also used them a few months ago to put on the end of my fingers that were numb. It worked pretty good and the numbness is gone about 95% of the time now.

And yes, I called my dr about the numbness.

If you’re feeling anxious and need to relax, and you have some clothespins lying around (the kind that pinch real tight), here’s what to do: Grab five clothespins, and clip one to the tip of each finger of your left hand, right at the start of the fingernails. Keep them there for seven minutes. Then put those clothespins on the fingers of your right hand for another seven minutes. Pressure exerted on these nerve endings is known to relax the entire nervous system.
Do this clothespin bit first thing in the morning if you wake up feeling tense and before, during or right after any particularly nerve-racking situation (job interview…difficult relatives coming…skydiving).

Have you been skydiving recently, RadisRose? ;)
 
We used the heads of the old wooden ones to make stamps out of. One of our clever scouts would card and initial in the head and we'd ink it and stamp stationary, etc. We also use the heads for tie dying.
