This is the type of clips I use. They are very inexpensive and I get mine at WalMart but Staples should have a similar product. The package looks different when I buy mine but the clip looks the same.

The clips are fairly expensive. I first used regular pins but then I found that sometimes I could not get the hole out.
I know use the big paper clips that are coated with plastic and they are working great.

I have tried the clips and they work but they do fall off when I'm pulling the fabric out and pushing back in. The fabric flap always gets smooshed off the board. Using the elastic bands everything stays in place and no fussing with it.

I think those fabric clips they are talking about are really the metal hair clips I used to use on my daughter's hair, you open them up, put the fabric (or hair) in the middle then snap closed. You may even find them at the dollar stores for a fraction of the cost. Just an idea. Are we on the same page?
