Shappy Bar Pin Backs 150-Piece Mixed Sizes (20–38mm) Gold & Silver — Flat Back, Bayonet Closures

Shappy 150 Pcs Bar Pin Backs are a mixed-size pack of flat-backed brooch pins in gold and silver tones built for making and repairing pins, badges, corsages and wearable crafts.

This kit gathers 150 stainless-steel-plated bar pin backs in four popular lengths (20, 25, 32 and 38 mm) and stores them in a compact plastic box. Each piece has either two or three mounting holes and an annular bayonet closure, so you can glue or sew findings, beads and embellishments to build personalised brooches, name badges, fabric corsages and more. The mix of gold and silver tones makes it easy to match a variety of materials and finishes.

How do these pin backs attach to handmade jewellery and fabric?

Each bar has a flat reverse surface plus two or three pre-drilled holes to accept thread, thin wire or adhesive. Use glue for non-porous backings like wood, metal or resin; sew through the holes when attaching to cloth or felt for added strength.

• Flat back accepts craft glue, epoxy or hot glue
• 2–3 mounting holes let you sew beads or thread directly
• Annular bayonet closure locks securely to prevent accidental opening
• Stainless-steel plating resists corrosion for longer-lasting projects

Which sizes are included and when should I use each length?

The pack contains 20 mm, 25 mm, 32 mm and 38 mm bar pins so you can select a size that matches the width of your design. Smaller bars suit compact pins and brooch centres; longer bars provide more mounting points for wider or heavier decorations.

• 20 mm — ideal for tiny badges, enamel pins and small bead clusters
• 25 mm — a versatile choice for medium brooches and layered pieces
• 32 mm — better for decorative clusters, fabric corsages and heavier ornamentation
• 38 mm — best for wide corsages, name badges or multi-component designs

Are these pin backs durable and safe to wear?

The pins are stainless-steel plated to reduce rust and maintain finish; the annular bayonet design keeps the clasp closed during normal wear. Because the pieces are small, handle them carefully and keep them out of reach of young children or supervise use around kids.

• Plated stainless steel reduces tarnishing and corrosion
• Secure locking mechanism prevents unintended opening
• Multiple holes allow reinforced sewing for heavier items
• Comes in a plastic storage box to organize and protect small parts

Who is this for? Makers of all levels will find value in this set — from hobby crafters and jewellery designers to costume makers, florists and teachers preparing classroom projects. The varied sizes and two-tone finish let you prototype different styles without buying separate packs. If you repair brooches, build badges for events or enjoy upcycling accessories, this Shappy assortment gives a reliable, economical supply for repeated projects.

Note: Small items are included—keep away from children or use under adult supervision. Refer to glue manufacturers' instructions when adhering components to avoid damage to delicate materials.
