Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply sew the button halves onto the fabric. Use a needle and thread that matches your fabric color for a seamless look. The buttons are compatible with most fabrics, but test on a small piece of scrap fabric first to ensure the thread does not damage the fabric. When caring for items with magnetic buttons, avoid exposing them to extreme heat or direct sunlight for extended periods. When washing, hand wash items or place the item in a garment bag if using a washing machine. Avoid ironing directly over the buttons. If the button becomes detached, re-sew it securely.
