Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To attach, simply thread a needle with appropriate sewing thread, pass it through the two holes on the back of the button, and stitch securely onto your fabric. Ensure the stitches are tight enough to prevent the button from coming loose.

Compatibility: These buttons are compatible with most standard sewing machines and hand-sewing techniques. They can be used on a wide range of fabrics, from cotton and linen to lighter wools and synthetics. They are best suited for projects where a decorative, non-functional button is desired, or for functional closures on lighter-weight garments and accessories.

Care: To maintain the vibrant color and integrity of the buttons, it is recommended to hand wash garments with these buttons attached or use a gentle cycle in a washing machine. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach. For best results, lay flat to dry or tumble dry on a low setting. Ironing over the buttons should be done with care, preferably on the reverse side of the fabric.
