Traditional luggage hardware magnetic buttons are the most widely used. There are magnetic buttons on wallets, handbags, and clothes. You will find that they have sections called "male buckle" and "female buckle".
Tips:
1. The male buckle part is usually thin, with a "core" in the middle, and the center of the female buckle part, covering the center of the ring magnet to form a magnetic field.
2. The female buckle part can be joined and retain the main part.
3. Since the flap is usually thinner than the body of a leather bag, we often use the magnetic buckle of the male buckle part to be installed on the flap of the leather bag, and the magnetic buckle of the female buckle part is installed on the body of the leather bag.
4. In addition, the installation of the magnetic button usually has two metal washers. The metal washers generally have a circular space in the middle and two rectangular spaces on both sides. If your magnetic buckle does not have those vacancies, don't be nervous, this is only a small part of the options (but it is best to have them).
Steps to install bag buttons
step 1:
Prepare all tools: 1 set of magnetic buttons, fabrics that need magnetic buttons, pens (or other hole-opening tools), pliers, sharp scissors or seams
Step 2:
Start to install the button, make an invisible fabric mark on the cloth, and mark the location of the pin placement (you can use a fork to place the mark yourself, or you can use a hand-held metal washer to place the mark).
Step 3:
The position of the rear fork has been marked and cut through the fabric at the prongs with sharp scissors. Keep the gap as small as possible.
Next, sew the head from the right side to the reverse side of the fabric.
Step 4:
Put the pin through the metal washer and bend the pin with rubber pliers, the pin can be bent inward or outward
Step 5:
Repeat this process, insert the male buckle part into the flap of your pocket, and now you can finish constructing your bag, handbag, purse or backpack.
