I piece of trim in a high traffic part of the kitchen had come loose a while back. One of the staples was missing. I removed the remaining one. I then selected two panel pins that matched the size of the original staple and fixed it back with a small hammer.

Here are my pictures.

Initially, I was going to take off the old long piece (pic 4 and following) and clean it and then reattach. The piece broke, though, so I bought new trim instead.
