Macro Mondays: Pins
In the 1960s you got a free pin when you bought a product. These pins are from C.Jamin
Cornelis Jamin was born in 1850 in Boxmeer. At the age of 20 he moved to Rotterdam, where he started a street trade in confectionery. Ambitious and headstrong as he was, he soon turned his street trade into an official confectionery with a sugar confectionery factory. After 10 years he had two sugar factories: one on the Roodezand and one on the Crooswijksekade. And another three years later, in 1883, the Netherlands had its first Jamin store, in which Cornelis sold his own products. He had a great business instinct and did good business.
Jamin's shops still exist

I went shopping yesterday for a new pair of trousers, but didn't find anything nice. So perhaps the sewing machine may have to come out again. These pins my come in handy. HMM:)
The most recent hobby that I started in 2022 is quilting. I quickly learned that "we quilters" like are gadgets and this is one that my daughter bought me from a small quilt shop. We like to support small businesses, now more so than ever since they continue to struggle and more and more are having to close their doors for good. I heard this morning that they have now come to the point where they must raise their prices to keep afloat due to the higher cost of staying in business, like heating, their cost of merchandise or ingredients to make products, etc.,
This is a new PIN holder. It is a tiny (1.5" tall, 2.5" wide) cup with an extremely strong magnet at the bottom. What makes this special is that you can drop the pins from 5-10" overhead and they land sticking straight up in the cup. So what, you say. Yes, I heard you! Well, when you go to retrieve a pin, all the pins are sticking straight up, if you turn the caddy over or if it gets bumped, the pins stay inside and do not spill out. It is difficult to explain why this works so well, so I think I shall stop before I bore you anymore. But the darn thing really works great.
This red pin was shot for this week's Macro Mondays theme 'Pins.'
The head of the pin is 0.5 inches, 1.25 centimeters tall.

Attention quand les pins se mettent en pelote et obstruent le passage : leur haute taille leur permet d'aller quérir la lumière bien plus haut, et de négliger les petites branches qui il y a bien longtemps faisaient leur fierté de jeune arbre et aujourd'hui entravent votre progression de leurs lances tenues à l'horizontale ! Si parfois il est délicat de se hasarder sous la futaie, il est de même difficile pour les plantes de sous-bois de s'installer sur l'épais tapis d'épines qui couvre le sol. On ne peut néanmoins se garder d'admirer ces arbres majestueux qui se dressent non loin du torrent de Navette, au sud de La Chapelle-en-Valgaudemar.
