Metal fasteners shouldn't look like hardware store leftovers. Tim Holtz designs these specifically for altered art and assemblage work, where vintage aesthetics matter as much as function. Each variety comes in nickel, brass, and copper antique finishes that coordinate across your projects, eliminating that "whatever was in the drawer" look.
Book D-Rings solve the fundamental problem of handmade books that won't close flat. The straight mounting side lets pages stack properly instead of splaying open like amateur bindings. Six large and six small rings give you sizing options for everything from chunky junk journals to slim tag books. Charm Clips function as both attachment and embellishment, slide the split ring onto your page edge, then use the smaller ring with included jump rings to dangle charms, keys, or found objects. Mini Fasteners feature debossed tops that mimic tiny screws, adding industrial detail to assemblages. Long Fasteners extend further than standard brads, securing attachments to thick substrates like stacked chipboard or layered fabric.
Hanger Clips bring miniature clothesline charm to photo displays. Swivel Clasps rotate open for easy attachment while the integrated chain creates instant vintage hardware appeal. Small Ring Binders eliminate bookbinding equipment requirements, just punch holes and bind. Jump Rings in two sizes handle everything from delicate chain connections to securing heavier embellishments, with metal that opens by hand but holds securely once closed.
