Brads & Buttons Matchbox Fill

Hej - what is a brad?

Hmmm, how to explain them - they are the cool little things that you punch through paper and then spread their metal "legs or prongs" - you always seemed to use them in public school. Does that explain it?

they have a "head" on the other side

Yes, thanks, I get it - used them to close padded envelopes back then, right?

They use to be called paper fasteners and were gold/brass -- and sold in office supply stores. Now that scrapbooking is so popular -- they are known as brads and come in ALL shapes, colors and even sizes.

Thank you for explaing it so much better!

I wenting looking for match boxes to buy but I didn't know what size to buy? Please let me know the size I need to buy.thanks

Jus the small ones.

acraftgeek, ScullyB I sent out your packages today

Mrs. D and 1CrazyQuilter, will be sending yours out tommorrow in the mail. I started on these and found myself on a scavengar hunt. I am big into scrapbooking but just recently redid my basement into a craft room so everything is everywhere. What a fun way to find my items. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks Mrs. D for all the extra's you put in my package. I am sure I am going to use all the items you sent me and I get to have a cup of tea at the same time. thanks!
