I’ve been doing several of the phone wallets from Embroidery Garden lately and started with the Babyville Boutique snaps sold at Joann’s and used the pliers to set the snaps. I found it took quite a bit of grip strength to properly set the snaps so ended up with my husband having to do it for me. The snaps were good but I had a lot of them to do and knew my husband would protest before very long.

I had read good reviews for KAM snaps so ordered their professional table press to install the snaps. It’s overkill really but at least I am able to put snaps in with it. Reviews I’ve read recommended the Kam Snap handheld pliers over the Babyville ones. I am able to set the Babyville snaps with the Kam table press and have had no problems doing it. So, depending on how many you plan to do, I would recommend investing in a Kam Snap setup. If you will only be a limited number of snaps I’d probably stick with the Babyville brand.
