How to set up a button on clothing
To sew the loose button may, perhaps, everyone. But what to do if you want to attach the button? The surest way to carry the thing in the Studio and trust it to professionals, because at home it requires a lot of effort, and if you have no experience installing them, it is likely that you'll damage the fabric or button.
Instruction
The button consists of four parts. Two of them are installed on the wrong side of the fabric, two on the front.
Select the location where you want to install the button and pierce a hole with a hole punch or a hot awl. The diameter of the hole will depend on the density of the material, but it must be slightly smaller than the diameter of a leg of a button. Typically, it is 2-4 mm. through the opening leg of the outer part of the button ("hat").
Put on leg on top of the cloth castle is the part of the button, which is spring. Put on both sides of parts a piece of cloth or rubber. This is necessary in order to avoid scratches and damage fittings.
Fasten button detail with a hammer or pinch them with pliers. Do the same with the second half details.
Useful advice
If you decided to handle yourself, use these tips and be patient, and as auxiliary tools, for example, a special device for setting the buttons (available at fabric stores), a forceps or pressure-with a punch. These devices are good because they can be used to establish not only buttons, but also other fittings such as eyelets or grommets. In addition, most of the tools included the buttons and the nozzle with the appropriate diameter. However, if all this was at hand, like a hammer or pliers.
