How To Open KAM Suspender Clips @ ILikeBigButtons.com January 24 2022
Pacifier clips are great for making pacifier holders, bib clips, toy holders, and various other ribbon or sewing crafts. They have grabbing teeth that secure tightly.
We frequently get asked, "How do you open these clips?"
These clips have a "soft" locking mechanism in the back that makes it more difficult to release unintentionally.
Opening the clip is a 2-step process.
First, slightly lift the lever in the rear to unlock.
Then, pull the front lip and the rear lever up and towards each other at the same time.
Once you get the hang of it, they are easy to open, but difficult for little fingers or to be released on accident.

How To Add KAM Snaps to a Sweatshirt @ ILikeBigButtons.com January 18 2022
I am a sweatshirt girl! Nothing makes me happier than a comfy sweatshirt. So warm, cozy, and comfortable, I love them all. The only downside is my newest favorite sweatshirt has supersized pockets. I love the front pocket, it is where my phone and emergency chocolate go, but this sweatshirt, although all the things I love about sweatshirts, has pockets the size of the Grand Canyon. My phone has fallen out of it more times than I want to count.
KAM plastic snaps to the rescue. Today, I am adding 2 sets of KAM snaps to my hoody so that I can wear my cozy sweatshirt without the fear of dropping or losing my phone.

You could make the Cover Buttons into fabric cover button earrings with our Earring Supplies and it could double as a gift and Christmas Card.
Supplies:
- Flat Back Cover Buttons (I used Size 20, Size 24, and Size 30 Cover Buttons)
- Cover Button Assembly Tools
- Cover Button Templates
- Fabric Scraps
- E6000 Adhesive or Hot Glue
- Sharpie Permanent Marker
- Card Stock or Pre-Made Card
Instructions:
1. Cut your fabric scrap. You will want a circle that is about twice the diameter of your button blank or use one of our handy Plastic Cover Button Templates.
2. Put your fabric piece in the larger assembly tool piece (RIGHT SIDE DOWN). When you look into the tool you want to see the back of the fabric.
3. Place the button front (the domed piece) on top of the fabric. Leave the fabric edges hanging out.
4. Press the cover button edges down into the tool.
5. Place the back cover button piece on top of your fabric and button front. If the cover button will be subject to repeated tugging from the back, you may want to add a little e6000 adhesive before attaching the back.
6. Take the smaller piece of the assembly tool and with the open side down place it on the button back.
7. Press down. You may hear a pop when the last bit of the button back slips into place. If you take the tool out and the button is not completely secured, just put it back in and press down again.
8. When you take the small assembly tool piece off, the fabric edges will be secured underneath the button back.
9. Remove the button from the larger assembly tool piece.
10. Tada! First step complete.
11. Using a ruler, I made 8 straight lines of varying lengths. Then I drew a bow on top of each and a small ornament top.
12. Then in your best print write Merry Christmas. How else doesn't like their own handwriting :P ? I need to practice my pretty cursive more often.
13. I think it turned out lovely. You could also make the Cover Buttons into fabric cover button earrings with our Earring Supplies: Earring Posts and it could double as a gift and Christmas Card.

Christmas Gift Idea #2: Key Fob Wristlets @ ILikeBigButtons.com December 02 2021
- 11"x2.25" fabric strip (of your choosing)
- 1" or 1.25" cotton webbing (depending on Key Fob Hardware Size)
- Heat N Bond or Fusible Tape
- 1" or 1.25" Key Fob Hardware set
- Key Fob Hardware Pliers
- Sewing Clips
- Fray Stop
- Sewing Machine
- Iron
2. I made a template out of chipboard that was 12"x1.25" to help me achieve a consistent size and look. Fold in and iron the fabric to 1.25" wide.
4. Remove Heat N Bond backing and turn finished Fabric Strip right side up and iron to Cotton Webbing making sure to center it.
5. Stitch along the edge of your Fabric strip, securing the edge onto the webbing. Work slowly, keeping close to the edge. Go the whole length on both sides.
6. Fold the Cotton Webbing in half, right sides facing out and match up the ends. Secure with Sewing Clips and stitch the ends together with a zigzag stitch. Trim any loose threads and lightly coat the end in Fray Stop or equivalent liquid to help resist fraying over time.
8. Using your Key Fob Hardware pliers squeeze the Key Fob Hardware closed a little at a time. I like to go back and forth a couple times so that I don't over-crimp one side too much.
9. Add the Key Ring and Yay!!! You are done. Good Job!!!
