Today’s blog will be focusing on how to use danglers and cut-outs to spruce up your trading pins for the coming baseball and softball season. Traditionally, danglers hang off of the bottom of the trading pin and usually display the year, or the age group of the kids. Common danglers included a baseball or softball, a glove, or a bat.
As you can see here in this image, this team used a dangler on the inside of their pin. Instead of hanging off the bottom of the pin, this baseball dangler will swing freely inside of the trading pin. The way they were able to accomplish this is by cutting out the inside portion. Cut outs are any area of the pin that has been cut away leaving a void in the pin.
Giving Your Trading Pins More Value During the Baseball or Softball Season
With trading pins, the more cut-outs you have, the more value your pin has. These little secrets of cut-outs and special dangler positions are all used to increase the perceived value of your trading pins. The more others want your pins, the easier time you will have trading. Sometimes, you can even get two pins for your one. That’s when you know you have a truly awesome pin.
Types of Trading Pins You Can Choose From
Here are a few of the different types of trading pins we offer:
- Glitter. Adds sparkle to ordinary paint. Great for drawing attention to certain areas of a pin.
- Slider. A sliding piece moves across a stationary piece easily giving the pin the appearance of movement.
- Spinner. Like a slider, a spinning piece is attached to a stationary piece. Players can use their finger to make the piece spin.
- Danglers. Small, dangling charms hang off a base pin. This helps add to the overall appeal of the pins.
- Bobble Heads. Made to look like a person or mascot, the head is attached to a stationary pin by a spring. When jiggled, it looks like the head is moving. This is a popular style of trading pin because it is interactive.
