I thought some may have a use few these very cheap mini clothes pegs that solve a multitude of problems and help tremendeously for big fingers. These are the same ones that are used to attached cards to gifts, bags etc. I have them to be very useful.

I love those things... here in the states we call them Clothes Pins (I guess pegs were what they originally were when they first came out because they were fashioned out of a single piece of wood, but once they split the wood and added the spring it just didn't feel right to call them pegs anymore), but they are the exact same thing. One thing I would like to add to this thou are Potato Chip (crisps) Bag Clips. They come in a variety of sizes, usually have a soft grip and are quite inexpensive. You can usually find them in the grocery stores. One thing I like to use the Pegs (pins) with are tweezers. You put a pair of tweezers between the pinchers and you've got a pair of micro locking clamps which are great for holding small peices for painting etc.
