Happy Thanksgiving!
Found 1890-1930 homestead with farming and timber industry.
Found 9 of these metal strips along with these other pieces.
Have no clue, found in the woods.

12 “ long found 9 and these 3 pieces probably go with them.

Glossy and end appears to have writing “WA?MM

Loops for hanging frames (art/pictures) maybe, and perhaps ground rods for lightning rods on the house and barn? Both guesses.

Look like the metal strips that were sewn into a womans girdle.

Not sure on the rods, but the items in the last picture look like snaps that would hold window screen in place.
