Description
That white blossom on a warm orange. Contrast runs strongest of these five blossom buttons, so the flower stays recognisable from a distance.
A plastic button carrying two holes, 13 mm in size, given as 1,3 cm in sewing patterns. Its surface is smooth and firm, the motif worked in, surviving laundering as well as the button does. It arrives singly. A matchstick underneath while sewing leaves room for your buttonhole's fabric — afterwards, wind that gap with thread so the shank holds.
What Plastic Button 13 mm White Blossom Orange is suitable for
- Summer dresses, because orange glows.
- Children's jackets, because this button is easy to find.
- Pairings with plain white, because the blossom repeats.
Frequently asked questions
How large should my buttonhole be?
As a rule of thumb, its diameter plus the thickness of your button. Test a hole on a scrap: it should pass through without slipping back out by itself.
Will it survive a washing machine?
Plastic is less sensitive than wood or mother-of-pearl, coming through a normal wash well. At high temperatures or in a tumble dryer stay careful, so that surface stays smooth, the motif clear.
Can I use it purely as decoration?
Yes, for cards, wreaths, key fobs or mobiles. On paper or wood, hot glue holds; on fabric that gets washed later, a seam remains the more reliable answer.
Can it tear out under strain?
Usually it is not your button that gives way but the fabric beneath. On thin cloth, add a small patch or a second button behind, so strain spreads while your edge stays intact.
