Troubleshooting
Button thread is fraying quickly.
Use a stronger, waxed thread designed for sewing or consider using a slightly thicker needle.

Wood grain and natural dyes can vary slightly. Allow for minor variations inherent in natural materials.

Gently smooth the edges with a very fine grit sandpaper if necessary, being careful not to remove the design or finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These buttons require no setup beyond being sewn onto your project using standard sewing techniques. Ensure you use a strong thread appropriate for the fabric and button thickness.
Compatibility: Compatible with most fabrics for dressmaking and crafting. They can be used on cotton, denim, wool, and synthetic blends. Consider the button size in relation to the fabric weight for optimal aesthetic balance.
Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of the wooden buttons, it is recommended to hand wash items with these buttons attached. If machine washing is necessary, use a gentle cycle with cold water and place the item inside a mesh laundry bag. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach. Air dry items rather than using a machine dryer, as high heat can potentially warp or damage the wood.
