Add a decorative button to clothing, costumes, scarves, or accessories—without making permanent holes in the fabric.

This model uses a two-piece magnetic design. A magnet is installed inside the decorative button, while a matching backing piece holds a second magnet. Simply place the fabric between the two pieces and the magnets keep the button securely in place.

Assembly

1. Press or glue a magnet into the decorative button.
2. Ensure the magnets are oriented with their polarity correctly so they attract before permanently installing them.
3. Install a matching magnet into the backing piece.
4. Place your fabric between the button and backing piece to attach.

If you customize the model, be sure to leave enough wall thickness around the magnet pocket to maintain strength.
