Small, elegant, and surprisingly versatile — the decorative mini peg has become one of the most widely used finishing touches in contemporary craft, home styling, and event decoration. At just 27mm long and 14mm wide, these miniature wooden pegs are finished in either warm gold or cool silver, giving them a considerably more refined appearance than a standard plain wooden peg and making them suitable for display and decorative applications where a plain peg would look too functional.
The spring mechanism works in exactly the same way as a standard peg — squeeze the back, open the jaw, attach, and release — making them practical as well as decorative. Both finishes suit a broad range of aesthetics: the gold works beautifully alongside kraft paper, natural materials, dried botanicals, ribbon, and warm decorative schemes; the silver suits contemporary, minimalist, and cool-toned palettes, as well as winter and festive decoration where a brighter metallic finish is preferred.
Common uses include creating photo display strings and wire garlands where photographs, cards, and prints are clipped at intervals; attaching gift tags and labels to wrapped presents, bottles, and packages; securing bunting and paper decorations; displaying artwork and children's work on a display string; decorating wreath and floral arrangements; and adding a finishing touch to handmade cards, journalling, and scrapbooking. The 27mm size is large enough to grip most card and paper cleanly without distorting it.
We stock both Gold and Silver — please select your preferred finish when adding to basket. 10 pegs per pack.
What can decorative mini pegs be used for?
Photo display garlands, gift tag attachment, wreath and floral decoration, packaging embellishment, bunting and party decoration, card making, scrapbooking, journalling, and any application where a small, elegant clip is needed. Both gold and silver finishes suit a wide range of decorative schemes.
Which finish should I choose — gold or silver?
Gold suits warm, rustic, botanical, and festive decorative schemes and works naturally alongside kraft paper, natural materials, and ribbon. Silver suits contemporary, minimalist, and cool-toned palettes, and is particularly effective in winter and festive decoration alongside white, blue, and cool metallic colour schemes.
Are they strong enough to hold photographs?
Yes — the spring mechanism holds standard photographic prints, card, and paper securely without slipping. They are not designed for heavy materials such as thick card or fabric bunting where a larger, stronger peg would be more appropriate.
How many are in the pack?
10 pegs per pack in your chosen finish — gold or silver.
