WWYD? Re: snap press die vs. pliers
I already have a snap press & the die for plastic snaps which I use quite frequently. I'm going to be making some patterns that call for metal snaps.
Would you buy the metal snap die for the press (~$32, but I have a $20 credit to the snap store) or buy the pliers (~$20, but I could probably rustle up a Jo-Ann coupon to use). FWIW, I had planned to use the store credit on more colors of plastic snaps.
I'm not sure how much I will actually use metal snaps - I hope to sew a lot of my own baby clothes, etc. but you know about intentions vs. reality. However, I'm hesitating on the pliers because I've seen such mixed reviews online (specifically for the Dritz brand).
TIA for any thoughts/opinions!
