Product Information
Full details
The Hemline Round Aztec Shank Buttons are ideal for sewing enthusiasts, crafters, and DIY fashion designers looking to add a sophisticated, detailed finish to their garments or accessories. These 15mm silver-toned buttons provide an elegant aesthetic and are built for durability across a variety of fabric projects; however, because they feature a shank attachment, they are best suited for heavier weight fabrics rather than delicate, thin textiles that might pucker under the weight.

FAQs
What is the diameter of these buttons?
These buttons measure 15mm in diameter.
How many buttons are included in the pack?
Each pack contains five buttons.
Are these buttons machine washable?
Yes, they are durable, but it is recommended to wash the garment inside out or in a laundry bag to protect the finish.
Can these be used for delicate fabrics?
They are best suited for medium to heavy weight fabrics due to their size and shank design.
Does the storage box protect against sunlight?
Yes, the provided clip-top box helps protect the buttons from UV light, which can degrade certain finishes over long periods.
Troubleshooting
Button feels loose after sewing
Use a thicker thread or wrap the thread around the shank multiple times before tying off to create a sturdy neck.
Button creates a lump in the fabric
Ensure you are using a slightly heavier fabric weight; if using thin fabric, consider adding a small piece of interfacing behind the button area for support.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality, detailed silver finish
- Comes with a convenient, protective storage case
- Standard 15mm size fits most buttonholes
- Shank back design keeps fabric looking clean
Cons
- Limited to a 5-pack quantity
- Not ideal for very lightweight or sheer fabrics
- Single silver color option may not match all designs
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, use a strong, coordinating thread and pass the needle through the shank eye multiple times to ensure a secure anchor. These buttons are compatible with most standard sewing machines if using a shank button foot, or they can be easily sewn on by hand. To maintain the silver finish, avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbing. When washing garments with these buttons, turn the item inside out or use a laundry mesh bag to prevent the buttons from scratching against the drum of your washing machine or other metal components.
