Is this product available in other colors?

Troubleshooting
Washer will not attach securely
Ensure the post is pushed completely through the fabric. Try applying more direct and firm pressure to the washer. Check that no fabric is obstructing the post or washer mechanism.
Nose feels loose after attachment
The washer may not have been fully engaged. Carefully inspect and attempt to re-secure the washer by applying additional pressure. If damaged, a new nose may be required.
Difficulty applying sufficient pressure
Use pliers (with protective padding to avoid scratching the nose) to grip the washer and apply pressure. Alternatively, use a flat, hard surface and press down firmly on the washer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Craft Factory Safety Noses, thread the post of the nose through the desired fabric or material of your craft project. Once the post is through, slide the provided safety washer onto the post from the back. Apply firm, even pressure until the washer clicks or feels securely locked onto the post. Ensure the washer is fully engaged to guarantee a permanent attachment. These safety noses are compatible with most fabric types used in toy making, including plush, felt, and woven materials. Care for items with these safety noses by cleaning the toy according to its specific material care instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the safety nose itself. Do not attempt to remove the nose once the washer is secured, as this can damage the surrounding fabric.
