A goodly quantity of marbles can also be used in place of a pinfrog to keep a flower arrangement in place.

"Steelies" (ball bearings) can be played with by making magnetic structures, especially the strong magnets that you can't really buy but must scrounge for as a kid that you can use to temporarily magnetize the steelies with.
