Terry,
 
How long is this going to be and wide?
 
I ask as I am thhinking a safety pin might not be a good choice.  You  
could attach it by sewing it with thread, but you would have the trouble I think 
 of bending the pipe cleaner when attaching the safety pin.  If you use a  
larger pin like 1 1/16 or 1 1/2 inch pin the head of the pin would 
definitely  show.  They do make plastic pin backs that have a hard plastic  base  
rectangle that you can glue the cane onto or glue a piece of color felt onto 
the  plastic and then the pipe cleaner.  I am saying this as I am thinking the 
 plastic is white and if the pipe cleaner is white things would not show 
up.There  are also pin backs that you can glue or sew on.  I think you can 
find them  in the jewlry craft making section.
 
Joann fabric has safety pins in the jewelry section that are without  
coils.  I do believe they have the 1 or 1 1/2 inch size ones.
