Oh yeah the pliers, they would be good...don't have any but have eyelet ones and they are great!

I have been using plastic snaps on bodysuits coz I got the deal with greenbeans to get every single colour under the sun...but I don't think it looks as good with plastic ones as it does with the metal ones...I think because the plastic ones seem so BIG and FAT...think the metal ones seem a lot more slimline.....just something else to think about lol! I will keep on using my plastic ones on stuff coz I have to use them all up hahahahahahaha...sigh seemed like a good idea at the time....]]> Sun, 06 Jun 2010 10:00:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054571&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054571 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054443&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054443 Author: hcsmum

you can also get pliers to do plastic snaps as well. Standard size for bibs, nappies etc is a size 20, so you will need to get a size 20 die and that's for a snap press as well as the pliers etc.

(I have the pliers and I find they are very easy :) ) ]]> Sat, 05 Jun 2010 22:40:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054443&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054443 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054413&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054413 Author: HuntersMama

Ive got some metal ones that i use for bibs and you can get the option of a pack with the little thing in it that you hit with a hammer. Works really well. I got them from spotlight and they should be in most sewing type shops.]]> Sat, 05 Jun 2010 21:51:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054413&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054413 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054172&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054172 Author: Nutella

Plastic good for things that are gonna get wet a lot as don't rust (obviously). If not doing a lot of snaps then wouldn't bother with plastic, just use the metal ones with the hammer kit thing...waaaay cheaper :-)]]> Sat, 05 Jun 2010 15:59:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054172&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054172 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054119&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054119 Author: fire_engine

You can get wee DIY kits at Spotlight as well, if you're just wanting to do a layer or two. I haven't tried them so can't guarantee how well they work!]]> Sat, 05 Jun 2010 14:25:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054119&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054119 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054117&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054117 Author: amykt

Greenbeans also has a Snap Services page where you can find someone in your area who has a press and contact them to use it.

Du have plastic domes? If so you need a snap press like off Greenbeans. If you're using metal snaps I think you can attach them with a hammer or your local material/sewing shop should be able to do it for a small fee.]]> Sat, 05 Jun 2010 14:03:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054111&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054111 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054106&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054106 Author: amykt

Ok, so I want to make some bibs with dome closures - but what do I need to attach the domes to the material? Is there some sort of contraption I need to buy, and if so where do I get it from and how much will it cost? Thanks!]]> Sat, 05 Jun 2010 13:53:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33878&PID=1054106&title=how-to-attach-domes#1054106
