I saw an awesome deal on a 3D bear pan on ebay.

But it said that it didn't come with the clips.

So, can you still use it and use something else to hold it together?

If so, what can you use?

Paper clips maybe or what?

If you have any idea, please respond soon, item is ending before the day is out.

Thanks a million.

You can purchase the clips by themselves. Our local Wilton store has them. (loca...l an hour away)

I just use the metal paperclips that hold big documents together. Not regular clips more like binder clips.

Happy bidding!

well, you can order the clips from wilton; they still sell them.

while waiting for that, binder clips are very strong, metal and come in several different sizes. >> pic of clips

paper clips might work if big and strong enough.

What I did for a pan that didn't have the clips anymore was to wash a brick and set that on top of the top pan. Tada......held them together just fine! icon_biggrin.gif Just be careful with that brick - it is HOT too.

depending upon shape of pan you can even tie together w/ string (wilton even says to do this with 3-D train)
