Lapel pins or tie tacs with JW.ORG

I just found out through the Coordinator of the Elders in my hall that the F&D S, sent out a letter telling the brothers that they can put up (on the outside sign billboard) JW.ORG in blue and white.   So, people who walk and or drive by can see it.  So I was surprised and happy that I got the answer.  As for the pins, to me its a private thing, and its obvious that the F&D S, has exposed its precious KM's to the world.  So Jehovah has nothing to hide.  I think all of this is glorifying Jehovah worldwide.

We found the best deal on highest quality ones at http://www.JWstuff.org

Ive seen many sites that have various styles but these are small and discreet so we can wear them anywhere and not look "goofy" yet i get witness all the time now see it and come up to me. Have also had 2 conversations strike up with random people who ask about them.

Where ever you get something, try wearing out sometime and see how it does for its real intended purpose. Get people to find the new website!

Alex, I would love too purchase a few of the lapel pins that you displayed on your post. I've looked on etsy & jw stuff, however, they don't show the square one that you have. Do you know any other place that may have that particular one? Please contact me VIA PM , if you know of a vendor.

 

EDITED to remove email. Please use the PM system rather than publishing your email address in a public website (See Forum Policy)

They are the small square ones. 

 

I learned a new trick. I have several of the convention badges with the pinch clip and safety pin. I pulled the clip off and ran the pin on the back through it. Now I use it instead of the pin - which was putting holes in my clothes.

Can you post a picture Jerry...I can't visualize what you're talking about?  I also am having a problem with holes in my clothes.

 

Thanks...

I peeled the alligator clip off the convention badge. I flipped it over and ran the pin from the button through it where the safety pin is and closed it back up. TADA. Now it has a clip.

[AH173]

That's good to know. I guess you don't like a HOLY SHIRT! LOL ☺

[Brenda]

 OK, got it.  That's brilliant  !!!

 

Off to do mine.

 

Thanks Jerry.  

[Brenda]

Jerry, did you remove the safety pin too.  Or just slide the pin in?

[trottigy]

I removed the safety pin. That was actually harder than I thought it would be. But once removed, the pin from the button fit in that slot nicely

Edit: I suppose I could have left it - if the button pin could close.

Thanks, yeah was having a hard time getting the pin out.  I will dig up a wire cutter out of my tool box tomorrow.  Then should be a breeze.  Great idea !!!

[timpin]

I like the idea, but I'm still confused on how to do it - slow learner, even with pictures - maybe a better close up will help?   ...   thank you. (sorry to bother you)

OK. I'll try my best. This picture shows the clip separate from the button. See how the back of the button has what almost looks exactly like the safety pin that was in the clip?

 

 

 

I just slip the pin from the back of the button into that slot where the safety pin used to be and then close the pin on the back of the button - TADA

 

Let me know a specific question and I'll do my best in answering if this doesn't do it.

Thanks Jerry, Great idea, works really well   ...   now our congregation had to order another hundred or so, I suppose other congs. will order hundreds from the Branch too!  

 

We were so Excited we told the Branch who gave us the idea -  they seemed "Excited" too  - You'll probably be getting a letter soon   ...     

 

 

 

j/k ...  we got alligator clips from the arts and crafts store and put double faced foam tape on them, and stuck them on the back of the pin as per your pictures. 

(you can stop sweating now)   ...  thanks again - tp.

[trottigy]

I always love talking with the brothers from the branch. No sweat. They are such sweethearts. nothing but love from there - like our God.

It's great to advetise jw.org

But, frankly speaking seeing this picture make me feel uncomfortable... Two brothers in the same shirt putting their arms in each other...

I guess, I am over reacted

I have the equipment to produce much of this but feel that doing so for commercial purposes would violate copyright. This is a conscience matter and that is my take. Your mileage may vary.

[Margaret]

I made pins and gave over 500 away to the friends.

Finally found a good use for the old crowns. 

[SUNRAY]

I just re-visited this discussion..am I understanding correctly that the Branch has o.k d us ordering jw.org pins or bags or whatever? Are pins available from the branch?

[trottigy]

No, the branch has not "ok'd" the pins and we cannot order them from the branch.

What they have said is - you can use the jw.org square for your personal use NOT commercial.
