Clever opener: It's annoying when letters or parcels are taped up so tightly that you can't open them by hand. The sharp edges of an unfolded clip are then excellent emergency openers.

Peeling oranges: The clip edge is also very useful in the kitchen. Simply cut into the orange peel as if with a knife and then peel it off.

Hanging up laundry: If you don't have enough clothespins to hand, you can also use a few hair clips to attach smaller items of clothing made of thin fabric to a line or clothes horse - they hold just as well.

Sheet holder: Tired of loose papers on your desk? Then create more order in no time at all: the blue clip keeps tax documents in order, the red one your private notes ... Now everything is nice and tidy.
