Tip Tuesday – Preventing Tiny Holes in Shirts

I may be the only one who has this problem, but just in case I am not I thought I would share how I fixed it.

So, here’s the back story. My new shirts kept getting holes right where they came in contact with my buttons of my pants. For awhile I thought there was something wrong with my shirts (I’m talking expensive ones all the way down to inexpensive ones, there was no rhyme of reason except for the location of the holes.), but then it just didn’t seem right. What was a girl to do, but google it. After some research I came to find out that the holes were from my shirts rubbing up against the buttons/zipper of my jeans. Most of the articles stated spending a lot of time leaning up again a counter can help cause this problem or the seatbelt in the car. Either way it’s the friction between your shirt and the button of your pants.

Here’s how I fixed it:

Things needed:

  1. Heat ‘N Bond
  2. An Iron

Simply figure out where your shirt meets the buttons of your pants, turn it inside out and iron on the heat ‘n bond (follow the directions on the package). It’s that simple.

Now that this has been happening to numerous shirts of mind I am simply doing this process each time I buy a shirt made with a delicate material.
