Dritz 114-30 Craft Cover Button Kit with Tools, Size 30 - 3/4-Inch, 18-Sets

Just what I needed!

This is good for fabric covered buttons. The process to make buttons is easy with all the parts needed to make the buttons.

Liked the productEasy to make button to match fabric.

The media could not be loaded. In the video I’m using a thick canvas material and I just happen to have a press machine.If you don’t have one, I would suggest finding a nut of some sort that fits the diameter of your button. I found a plastic part from my sewing machine that is sturdier than the blue cap they give you, but it works as well. Then I would put it under the leg of your chair or couch and give it enough pressure to fit snuggly but not bend the metal.Another tip, if you use a thicker material than wet it first. This helps not only to make the fabric less stiff but also makes a suction sound when you press it that lets you know it’s good to go. Also hard to take apart again if you do it correctly, no glue necessary.*Cannot be used with leather. I tried chrome tan and pig skin, neither worked because there’s little give to the material.

It’s personally rewarding to be able to make custom fabric buttons without an expensive button press! The first was challenging but I revised my technique and have made 40 buttons out of upholstery fabric. The thinner the fabric, the easier it is! It helps to have short fingernails. I improvised and also used a tart tamper from my kitchen on top of the blue pusher and hit the end of the tamper HARD with the flat end of a meat mallet 3-4 times per button which works well! (A hammer or rubber mallet would also work) Make sure to use the blue pusher(in kit) to protect the button! Easy!

Kit helps you make awesome cute buttons...customized to your style

I bought these to reapolster a couple old chairs. The fabric is thick and these buttons were useless. I ended up switching to a thinner fabric which isn't ideal for the design. Begrudgingly keeping them because I don't want to be bothered with returning them.
