I bought a magnetic pin bowl and I HATE it! I have only yellow head pins in the magnetic bowl. My other, multi-color pins, which are kept in a plastic box along with my seam ripper and small scissors, are also magnetized! (Guess taking them to Bee they got cross-magnetized) So whenever I pick up my scissors, a bunch of pins are stuck to them. I am giving everything magnetic away to a Bee sister who wants them and I am buying everything new! Just have to make a trip to Joann's to buy new.
