Tip for Holding Those Tiny Nails!

You know those teeny, tiny nails you're supposed to use to nail in the picture hangers? They're even too small to hold with your fingers! I read all over the package, trying to figure out how you were supposed to hold them while you hammer them, but could find anything. After smacking my fingers with the hammer {TWICE}, I decided to figure something else out. Necessity is the mother of invention, right?

Here's what I did. *WARNING* All those with perfectly manicured fingers, avert your eyes!

A bobby pin is perfect! It has those little grooves that are just the right size for holding a nail. Then, just squeeze the open end and your fingers are out of the way of the hammer. Works like a charm!

Happy hammering!
