Tip: Use a comb to find those pins
#12
The only time I go barefooted is in water or bed. If anyone goes in my sewing room with no shoes well, it's their feet. They know better. I use the magnet pin holder to pick up dropped pins but I'll try the comb idea as some do get caught in the carpet. My vacuum cleaner thanks you!

You know how it is with something round hitting the floor!

That's my trick also - a big magnet!! Works like a charm
