FAQs
What size of fabric circle should I cut?
Cut a circle of fabric slightly larger (about 1/2 inch) than the button itself to allow for wrapping around the edges.
Can I use these buttons with any fabric?
Yes, you can use these buttons with most fabrics. However, very thick fabrics may be more challenging to work with. Choose fabrics appropriate for your project.
Do I need any special tools?
No, these buttons are designed to be used without any special tools or sewing.
Are the buttons washable?
Yes, you can wash the buttons as you would the fabric. Refer to the fabric's care instructions.
What is the warranty on these buttons?
Please refer to the product packaging or your point of purchase for warranty information.
What are shank buttons?
Shank buttons have a loop (or shank) on the back for attaching the button to the garment, rather than holes that you sew through.
Troubleshooting
Button back plate won't snap on.
Ensure the fabric is trimmed neatly and is not too thick. Reposition the fabric and try again, ensuring even distribution.
Button comes undone.
Ensure the back plate is securely snapped on. Use a fabric glue to hold the fabric in place before snapping the back plate on.
