Enamel pins are a popular way to express personality and interests, and are often found decorating backpacks, jackets, and other accessories. However, a common problem faced by pin enthusiasts is that these pins tend to fall off, especially when attached to a backpack that is frequently moved or bumped. This guide provides comprehensive strategies to ensure your enamel pins are securely attached to your backpack.

Understand the Problem

Enamel pins are typically equipped with a standard butterfly clasp or a rubber backing to hold the pin in place. While these mechanisms are generally effective, they can sometimes fail for a variety of reasons, such as wear and tear, lack of grip, or external forces. Understanding these problems is the first step in finding a solution.

Pin Types

Butterfly Clasps

The butterfly clasp is the most common type of pin. It consists of two metal prongs that are squeezed together to release the pin. While practical, it can become loose over time.

Rubber Closures

Rubber fasteners are another popular choice. They offer slightly more support than butterfly clasps, but can still wear out, especially with frequent use.

Locking Pin Clasps

Locking pin clasps are designed to provide a more secure hold. Usually a small tool is required to lock and unlock, so there is less risk of accidental drops.

Magnetic Backs

Magnetic backs use magnets to hold the pen in place. While they are easy to attach and remove, they are generally not as secure as other types of fasteners and can be affected by strong magnetic fields.

Strategies to Prevent Pins from Falling Off

Use Lockable Pin Clasps

One of the most effective ways to ensure your enamel pins are kept in place is to use lockable pin clasps. These fasteners snap into place and require special tools to remove, making them very secure. They come in different versions, including screw and snap-in mechanisms.

Add a Drop of Super Glue

For a more permanent solution, you can add a small drop of super glue to the pen before installing the backing. This will create a strong bond and will be less likely to break. However, this method is not recommended if you plan to change or remove the pen frequently.

Use Clear Nail Polish

Applying a thin coat of clear nail polish to the pen can also help secure the pin backing. Nail polish provides more holding power and can be easily removed if necessary.

Double Pin

Two pins on a single pin can provide extra security. This method is especially useful for larger or heavier pins that are more likely to fall off.

Attaching Pins to Patches

Another effective strategy is to attach the pins to a fabric patch and then sew or iron the patch onto the backpack. This method ensures that the pin will remain attached to the patch even if the back of the pin fails.

For added security, you can use small safety pins to secure the pins of your enamel pins to the fabric of your backpack. This method is especially useful for needles with longer needles.

Care Tips

Regular care can also help your enamel pins stay securely attached. Here are some tips:

Check your pins regularly

Make a habit of checking the backings of your pins regularly to make sure they are still secure. Tighten or replace the backing if it appears loose or worn.

Clean the pins of your lapel pins

Dirt and debris can accumulate on the pins of your pins, reducing the effectiveness of the backing of the pin. Clean your pins with a soft cloth and some rubbing alcohol to ensure a secure fit.

Storing Your Pins Properly

When not in use, store your enamel pins in a safe place away from bumps or damage. Consider using a bulletin board or fabric-covered board for storage.

Conclusion

Enamel pins are a great way to personalize your backpack, but keeping them securely fastened together can be a challenge. By understanding the different types of pin backs and using some of the strategies outlined in this guide, you can ensure your pins stay in place no matter where your adventures take you. Regular maintenance and extra care can go a long way toward keeping your enamel pins safe and long-lasting.
