Abstract
Disclosed is a securing article combination including a pin with an oversized head (top) and a cap to fit snugly over the pin point (tip) after the pin has been used to join multiple layers of a material or multiple materials. The materials may be of cloth or fabric natures, as well as other items for which the securing device may be suitable for use. Alternatively, the pin head may be of a variety of decorative shapes to provide a decorative use in addition to its securing function. Such use is made possible due to the convenient use of a cap of a shape that conforms to the shape of the pin shaft and made of an elastomeric material, typically clear or opaque.
