FAQs
What is the exact size of these buttons?
These buttons are 8mm in diameter, which is equivalent to 13 lignes.
Are these buttons safe for baby clothing?
Yes, they are made from non-toxic materials, though always ensure they are sewn on securely to prevent potential choking hazards.
How many buttons are included in the pack?
Each pack contains 7 individual heart-shaped buttons.
Can I machine wash garments with these buttons?
Yes, but it is recommended to turn garments inside out or use a garment wash bag to protect the button surface.
Do I need special tools to store these?
No, they come in their own clip-top storage box that provides protection from UV light and dust.
Troubleshooting
Button is loose after attaching
Use a shank-style knot or a thread spacer while sewing to provide enough room for the fabric to move freely underneath the button.
Button hole is too tight for the button
Since these are 8mm (13 lignes) buttons, ensure they are paired with buttonholes designed for small fasteners; do not force them into holes meant for larger buttons.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your buttons remain in pristine condition, store them inside the provided clip-top box when not in use to avoid exposure to dust or direct sunlight. When attaching the buttons, use a fine-gauge sewing needle and matching polyester thread to secure them through the pre-drilled holes. Ensure you do not over-tighten the thread against the button surface to allow for proper fabric clearance when buttoned. For garment maintenance, turn the clothing item inside out or use a laundry bag during washing cycles to prevent the heart shapes from snagging or scratching against other surfaces.
