Setting an Eyelet
Eyelets may be used to reinforce
small ribbon/cord holes, or alone as design elements. These instructions are
for the
Fiskars Eyelet Setter Set (60-TL-3133).
-
In the desired
location, punch a hole of the same diameter as the tubular part of the
eyelet.
-
Place eyelet through hole, leaving rounded top exposed on front of
cardstock.
-
Place eyelet and cardstock face down on a piece of chipboard (the
back of an old paper pad or shoe box lid works well). Be sure to work on a
hard solid surface.
-
Using the appropriate size nib, place the setting end of
the eyelet tool into the back of the eyelet and gently pull up on top of the
tool, slightly stretching the spring, then release it. Be sure to hold the
tool vertically in place.
-
Repeat as necessary until the eyelet is snugly
set. Pulling too hard on the top of the tool will damage the eyelet and may
even damage the tool itself.
