Buttoneer will Make Your Sewing Repairs Easy
What will they think of next, a way to attach or fix a hem or loose button without the use of a sewing machine or a needle and thread? All you have to do is use a two prong button attaching machine that only weighs a few ounces. This will fix any wardrobe mishap that you may encounter no matter where you are or what kind of function that you are at. This has been on the market for several years and is offered by the As Seen On Tv products. For only 9.99 you can have one of these at your beckon call. It is called the Buttoneer.
Description
This little gem of a repair tool is approximately 4 ½” long and is spring loaded. This is just about two inches wide and has two wings to place your fingers on while you insert the two stainless steel needles that are protruding out of the end, in the garment. This is made of plastic and holds little strips of clear plastic to allow you to reattach a button or fix a hem that has come apart.
Experience
We have been using this for several years and always keep it handy. In the times of need you can replace a loose button or fix a hem in a matter of seconds. All you have to do is insert one of the plastic strips into the Buttoneer, then place the button on the tool and push the two needles through the garment and then squeeze. The Buttoneer will then push the little plastic strip to permanently reattach the button or fix a hem that has come apart. When you hear a solid popping noise then you will know that you have succeeded in reattaching the button or hem. This is not a temporary fix it is a permanent fix. They sell packets of 100 fasteners so that you can continue to fix all of those loose buttons. You can also use this to decorate item of clothing for Halloween, instead of digging out that bulky sewing machine. This is great for any delicate or craft items in the home or office, or at school and even on the go.
Conclusion
This is one of those products that actually do what they advertise them to do. This will actually last you for several years and you will never have to sew on another button. These little plastic strips can be found at any sewing supply store for less than 5 dollars each. I would highly recommend that you keep this away from children because of the two very sharp needles that are protruding out of the one end. If you are not careful you can puncture your hand if you are not paying attention to what you are doing. I have actually done this to my own hand just because I was not watching what I was doing. Kids may think that this is a toy but they will soon realize that they can be hurt by this if they are not careful. Five stars for accuracy and the way that this fulfills our expectations.
