FYI- I cut a round of plastic from milk jug or top of oatmeal box to put over the prongs with the metal disc that comes with the snaps. I make it a little bigger than the metal disc and think it gives more support (and it's washable).

Great idea Pat. I'll try that! My mom hates using velcro so instead, I put gripper snaps onto my purse insert, added grosgrain ribbon to the purse for something to snap too and plastic rings for her to hold as she pulls the snap apart. Worked great.
