FAQs
Are these buttons safe for children's clothing?
Yes, the buttons are made from non-toxic materials, making them suitable for garments intended for children.
What is the size of the buttons?
The buttons are 18mm in diameter, which is equivalent to 28 lignes.
How many buttons come in a pack?
Each pack contains 3 individual cat-shaped buttons.
Are the buttons machine washable?
Yes, they are suitable for garments, but please refer to the specific washing instructions included on the product packaging for best results.
What is the benefit of the included storage box?
The clip-top box keeps the buttons organized, dust-free, and protected from UV light which can cause discoloration over time.
Troubleshooting
Button feels loose after sewing
Ensure you have created a thread shank between the button and the fabric to allow room for the fabric to sit comfortably behind the button.
Button does not fit through existing buttonhole
Check if the buttonhole is smaller than 18mm. You may need to slightly enlarge the buttonhole or use the button as a decorative 'sew-on' accent instead of a functional fastener.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach the buttons, use a standard needle and thread suited for the weight of your fabric. If you are replacing existing buttons, ensure the buttonhole size is compatible with the 18mm diameter of the cat shape. Regarding care, always refer to the specific washing instructions printed on the Hemline packaging. Generally, these buttons should be washed in a garment bag if used on machine-washable items to prevent scratching or accidental snagging. When not in use, always return them to the provided clip-top box to maintain their appearance.
