thumbtacked
Fastened with pins
Thumbtacked means fastened with a thumbtack—a short pin with a flat head designed to be pressed in with the thumb.
Papers get thumbtacked to bulletin boards, posters to walls: She thumbtacked the notice to the corkboard.
The word suggests casual, temporary attachment rather than permanent fixing.
