Review on 300-Piece Dritz Home Hammered Decorative Nails, Antique Brass Finish, 7/16-Inch For Home Decor Projects by Jennings Ford
Won't go into the wood frame
My latest project is reupholstering 2 throne chairs with heavy upholstery fabric incl alligator-like leather. The original fabric on the chairs had nail head strips. I wanted something different for the reupholstery. I'm heartbroken that I can't use these tacks. When I tried nailing them into the frame with both a tack and regular hammer. These tacks/nails won't go into the wood. The shaft bends, and the tack become unusable. It looks like I have to pre-drill the holes 1st, which is too much trouble for me right now.
Pros
- Easy to use - These decorative nails are easy to use and can be applied with minimal effort. Simply hammer them into whatever surface you want to add an extra decorative touch
Cons
- May not be practical for those with limited mobility or dexterity
