I need to put a snap on a shirt dress to make neckline better but it's hard for me to get to a seamstress.
Anything else I can order on Amazon amd put on easily myself?


Tysm!

Safety pin?

Sewing on a snap isn't that difficult. I'm sure you can find a YouTube tutorial on how to do it.

You hand sew snaps... no seamstress needed. if you have a needle and thread and the snaps, just measure where you want it, mark with chalk and just sew it on.

I would do a "light" sew to attach (baste) and if it fits in the right spot you can then just go over it and do a tighter stitch. That way if you don't line it up right it is easier to undo.
