If you're an academic, or have a home office, chances are you have a supply of these items. One friend of mine refers to them as "barbie purses," and it's easy to see why:

- a clip for outgoing mail on my vertical mailbox
- a closure for opened bags of food in my refrigerator and cupboards
- hanging a Christmas wreath
Binder clips! A million and one uses! And the fun never ends...

Happy Labor Day weekend, everyone!

Binder clips were like currency in my department. "Review my paper?" "Sure. Can I keep the clips?" I also use them to clip my pants legs out of the way of the bike chain.
Add in: holding my ground coffee bag closed, and working as a clip for other kitchen stuff.
I love them! (I'd never heard the Barbie purse thing, but it made me laugh.)
I always thought that this was a genius way to use binder clips.

Just to be clear: None of these photos are my creation. I do like the binder-clip dog, though.
