FAQs

Can I wash garments with these buttons in the machine?

Yes, but it is highly recommended to use a delicate cycle and a mesh laundry bag to protect the fabric surface from abrasion.

Are these buttons suitable for heavy coats?

No, these are best suited for light-to-medium weight fabrics like cotton, linen, and lightweight wools.

What is the primary material used for the button core?

The buttons utilize a sturdy, lightweight metal core wrapped in high-quality decorative cotton fabric.

Can I iron directly over these buttons?

Avoid ironing directly on the buttons as the heat can affect the internal adhesive and potentially damage the fabric finish.

Do these buttons come with a warranty?

The product is covered by standard manufacturer quality guarantees against defects in material and workmanship.

Troubleshooting

Button shank pulling loose from fabric

Ensure you are using a shank button stitch technique with a small spacer or matchstick to allow for the thickness of the fabric underneath.

Fabric covering showing signs of fraying

Apply a tiny amount of clear fabric fray-check liquid to the underside where the fabric meets the metal base.

Pros and Cons

  • Coordinates perfectly with other Tilda fabric collections
  • Soft-touch fabric finish feels premium compared to molded plastics
  • Multiple buttons in one pack provide great value for larger projects

Cons

  • Fabric surface is susceptible to staining if handled with dirty hands
  • Not intended for heavy-duty outdoor gear or high-friction areas
  • May require hand-washing the finished garment to preserve the button finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Tilda buttons, always attach them using a sturdy, snag-free needle to avoid pulling the fabric covering. When laundering garments featuring these buttons, it is highly recommended to turn the item inside out or place it in a delicates bag. Avoid heavy-duty machine drying on high heat, as this can degrade the adhesive or fabric integrity of the button cover. For long-term storage, keep the buttons in a dry, dust-free environment away from direct sunlight to prevent potential color fading of the fabric patterns.
