I wanted to like this more than i did
After seeing other sewers us magnetic pin holders i wanted to try one out. I wasn't sure about the sort of oval shaped ones so though this would be perfect. it is very magnetic! and does hold a lot of pins - but kind of haphazardly so you end up putting your had in to get one and pricking yourself. the base is also very magnetic so if you miss tossing a pin in the dish it (and anything beside it, scissors, etc) will stick to the bottom and then you pic the tray up to move it and prick yourself again. Good but not perfect. I do like the rubbery base though as does keep it stable.

Sure is a magnet
This bad boy can hold so many pins. For real though I'm very glad to have treated myself to this and it holds the pins in a lovely ring around the edge as it fills up and the curved edges makes it easy to pick them up

Coating scratches offeasily but a very useful dish
The dish is very stable and they magnetic is strong and the whole of the dish is magnetic. A nice protective base BUT and this is why I didn't give 5 stars, the coating of the dish scratches really easily when ever anything sharp touches it, which in sewing is virtually everything! It is a very useful dish though with good weight and stability.

Love this
It is super practical and looks so stylish in all black! I liked it so much I bought a second one as a gift. I love this whole line, I had seen other magnetised pin holders but they were oh so ugly in their vivid Windows 95 colour range, which always surprises me considering sewists and makers tend to love beautiful things!

What I can use it for
Although it’s designed and bought for my sewing room, so I can put other things in it “not just for pins. I’m always loosing hooks and eyes when I’ve removed them from the card. BUT My husband has his eye on it for whenever he is removing screws etc.

Great little find
Wow! Can’t believe I’m this excited by a pin tray, but this is such a great find. Extremely strong magnet and has already saved me loads of time searching for dropped pins. Attractive colour and size too. Highly recommend.

A really useful tool
This bowl is brilliant. It keeps all my pins safely under control , and can be used to sweep the carpet for any strays. It also sticks to any metal surface, so stops any accidental spillages

Magnetic dish
A really handy little dish for those odds and ends around the home, not just sewing bits. A tad expensive at £10.00 but it does look nice and the quality is really good.
