Review on πŸ”§ Lynda Snaps and Snap Pliers Set: 360 T5 Plastic Buttons for Sewing and Crafting by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very Easy to Use - Latches

I'm glad I bought this set. I bought it to photograph the bibs I was making. The set contains a wide range of buttons and a large number of each color. The buttons are well made and hold firmly to the fabric. I like that they are plastic because there is no chance for rust or paint chipping. The quality is good although it is light. Perhaps the best part of the set is the amazing attachment tool! I had a lot of issues with my thumbs and wasn't sure I could squeeze them tight enough to install the latches, but it turned out they didn't need to be squeezed at all. Seriously, the less pressure the better! I deformed a few times when taking it apart because I was pressing too hard. I chose the color I felt was least used and attached it to a piece of fabric to get a feel for it. I sewed a pillowcase for the swing, which can now be removed for washing. I even made a basket to catch yarn and a pad for needles that can now be removed for emptying. My sister-in-law, who received the bibs I made for our little granddaughter, thought the buttons added a nice touch. We both decided they'd be better off washing without the velcro to keep them hooked in the wash. All in all a great purchase.

Pros
  • EASY TO INSTALL, AMAZING RESULTS: Simply attach the buckle and button and press down with Babyville pliers. Repeat for the female button. When the latches engage, you will hear a click, which means the installation process is complete.
Cons
  • Only available in black
