We use it for all kinds of projects. It’s wonderfully simple to operate, lets us attach a snap in no time, and we could no longer live without it. It’s the snap machine. If you follow our YouTube tutorials or the ones in Lulu Ferris, you’ve seen us holding it countless times. If you don’t already have one among your sewing tools, you should get one right away.
We’re going to tell you why we like it so much.
Why do you need snap pliers?
- They go on very quickly. In just a couple of clicks, you have them attached and working, without having to sew or make buttonholes.
- They look really nice, because besides being practical, they’re decorative and come in lots of colors to coordinate.
- The snap machine is also very easy to use. It works by applying pressure and doesn’t require any special skill. You just have to mark on the fabric where each part of the snap will go to make sure you don’t make a mistake.
- It’s very inexpensive, because when you buy the machine, it already includes everything you need: punches, replacement parts, and 150 sets of snaps in different colors. And that’s a lot of snaps :)
- You can use them in all kinds of crafts. On clothing, covers, wallets, bags, bibs, pacifier clips… In every craft and sewing project you can imagine.
- They save you from sewing on buttons and making buttonholes.
So you won’t have any doubts the first few times you use it, and you won’t be afraid of ruining the project you’ve just made, we’re including our short tutorial on using the snap machine below. You’ll learn how to attach them in just two minutes. And along the way, you’ll also see how the button-covering machine works, which is another one of our favorites :)
You just have to be careful not to get hooked, because once you start, it’s hard to stop. You’ll want to put snaps everywhere! Remember that you can find the machine with 150 sets of snaps in our online store. The one we sell is the one we use for all our projects, and we couldn’t be happier with it.
You’re going to love it, too—you’ll see!
