    Step by step tutorial on how to apply press fasteners or snaps to fabric specifically using the Birch press fastener kit with tools included but would work for most press snap fastener brands.
    In my opinion this is a great, simple and very cheap Press Snap Fastener Tool Kit here on Amazon to get you started. amzn.to/2ssv53Z

    Bought exact Kit - struggled with Instructions too!
    You saved me much frustration & $20 ( cause it worked than throwing it in the bin).
    Proud to say I now have cute dribble bids for Grandies.
    Much thanks!!!

    Fantastic. We made the same mistake as you at the start and the end of the fastener broke off inside the hole-punching tool 1.
    Birch need to work on their editing!

    Someone should send this video to the packaging team at Birch, they really need to rectify the instructions, as I too would have done it wrong and ruined hours of sewing a project. Thank you for taking the time to do this video and saving my sanity.

    Thanks Shannon for this video. I bought the same kit and couldn't make head or tail of it. So my first thought was to go to RUclips. Yours was the first video on the search results.
    I particularly appreciated that you went to the effort of explaining the do's and don'ts of the whole procedure. My wife and I watched the video and then got to and did the work. It turned out great!
    You really should have a patreon because your efforts are worth something.

    I just bought this in 2022 and they have not changed the instructions! You are a genius and unlike me, I thought I was I got the instructions wrong, bought another packet because I ruined the Tool 1, and followed the SAME instructions and ruined it again! You deserve a coffee and a medal from Birch - how do I get you one as I'm in Singapore?

    Thanks. Yes point 3 of the instructions should say:
    3. On right side of garment, insert part A through hole from right side and position on recessed side of die. Place part B on shank and hammer together firmly with tool 2 (with protruding end) - Diagram 1.

      My wife was so confused and I thought let me have a look. I nearly jumped out of the window as well. After throwing the instructions in the bin and kick the bin down the stairs I tried to put the pieces together. When it worked I thought it best to just put it up on RUclips before the asylums get filled. I’m glad it helped.

    @nataliemains9021 2 года назад

    Thank you so much for this video, like you, I managed to use the wrong tool first. I ended up hammering the metal sheath back inside the puncture tool and the more I used it the further that broken piece disappeared inside the tool. Thank you so much again, I really appreciate it.

    @trishwarnes4035 5 лет назад

    thanks for that helpful info. I didn't have the instructions anyway so this was good. Was hammering away on the deck and dropped the hammer, board and metal mould for sitting the top in over into the bushes. Retrieved the hammer and board but will never be able to find the mould!! ;-( Now I'll have to go and buy a new kit anyway, just to get the mould. Now I realise why every kit has those tools in it - yes, you can lose bits out of it lol. thanks

    Does anyone know if it is possible to cover the button? (part A). I'm hoping a can cover with a circle of cloth with a draw string stitch to hold it tight underneath and then jam the cloth between part A and part B during step 3. Anyway I will give it a go.
