I have some hatpins I have collected to put in a couple of antique hat pin holders. I think they are longer than a corsage pin.

Well this sounds interesting. I have several corsage pins. Think I'll try & think of something I can do.

Common sense disappeared a long time ago when electronics arrived on the scene. All we need is a thumb.

I don't know. But probably not anyone in this thread, including the OP.

Me, I'd stick the sharp ends in a cork, or nestle them in tissue paper inside a plastic travel soap box.

Rats....I thought you were talking about brooches. I really don't have space for these cute pins. An exchange could be fun.

You could always exchange the brooch pins, they look great as a pc decoration. And of course you must wrap the pins safely.
I just took it for granted that they would be.
