Minders
Ashlie Hagenson
Government-appointed persons to accompany foreign visitors are often termed minders, assigned to offer assistance such as acting as a guide or as a translator, or protection in dangerous areas, or to define areas of permitted travel. Often they are perceived as also attempting to censor or otherwise control the flow of information to the visitor.[1][2] Government appointed minders are used in North Korea.[3]
Hi all! I'm looking to make some needle minders out of some enamel pins I've collected over the years. I went to buy some magnets but didn't realize how many options there would be. Has anyone done this before, and if so, do you have a link to magnets you've used or recommendations for good ones? Thank you!
When creating and testing our needle minders, I leaned towards using magnets with significant pull. I prefer a needle minder that I can be sure will keep my needles where I want them, despite the project getting jostled or bumped.
I chose neodymium magnets when making our needle minders for several reasons: 1. They are higher quality than craft magnets; 2. They have a stronger pull, and you can acquire them in a variety of strengths for different purposes; and 3. they come in a wide variety of shapes and thickness.
When working out a plan for a series of needle minders, I decided to go with flat surfaces, because I think they are more versatile for holding tools. I oscillated between wood or bisque for the body of the needle minder, and finally settled on bisque because it is was more versatile for decorating.
We have a great selection of needle minders for sale, each featuring a colorful enamel front and a pair of magnets. We prefer to use the better quality rare earth magnets because they provide easy access to your needles but won't leave unsightly marks on your fabric like other types of magnets may.
