I was looking around the other day for something to display my pins on... I came across this polystyrene/ hard foam type material used for craft. Best thing was it was in the 10p bargain section!

Then decided to create a background for it on Photoshop and print it off and stick it to the foam, and here are the results!
They look much better on here as my collection at the moment just sits in a few boxes in my drawers!

It still needs a little touching up, may even frame it at a later date... I don't have hundreds of pins yet, but the few I have I can Display in this way! I think I will make a board for my traders next so I can keep them somewhere to view them all! Made this one just for my piratey style pins.

If anyone wants to use the background I made, feel free, you may need to resize it though, it was a little smaller than A4...

Here's a link to it... http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e215/sardineface/potcpinbackgroundcopy_zps10639fc9.jpg

wow good idea....now the pins stick in there well? i bet you can craft a frame....most i like the back ground you did and i am curious is that a few seperate peices of paper matched up and glued on? I like how it is subtle as not to take away from the pins--super job.
