Supplies Needed:
Cover Button Kit (7/8” recommended)
Ouchless Hair Elastic
2.5 x 2.5 Fabric Piece
Seam Ripper (or something with a small, sharp edge)
Covering your button
Cut your fabric to 2.5 x 2.5. This fabric size will be enough to cover
any button you have, up to 1 ½”.
**For thinner fabric, I suggest using a backing fabric – I use
interfacing. It’s thin and easy to manage. It’s also sheer, so it will not
make color changes to your fabric**
Center the fabric, wrong side up, over the plastic mold.
Press the button shell into the mold.
Trim the excess fabric so that when you push it towards the center, it
just touches the other edges.
**You don’t want too much fabric – it’ll be difficult to put the button
together later**
Tuck the fabric into the button shell.
Put the button back in the mold. Use the blue pusher to force the
fabric in the mold. **It’s easier to use a spool of thread to push the
fabric in**
Press around the edges with the spool of thread – for a tight fit.
Carefully peel back the mold and you’re done!
Attaching the Ouchless Hair Elastic
Pinch the “good” end of the elastic. The good end is the end
without the “Ouchless” glue. Put the good end through the eye. Pull
the elastic a little, bringing it about half-way through the eye. Pull
one side over the other.
Pull it all the way through
You’re finished!
