Great idea using the press. Thank you.
Thank you! Another great option is a claw-style staple remover!
I will pull that out of the desk and added to my sewing room. I ordered an arbour press to add to my sewing room. We live in Canada making it hard to get to Harbour Freight. I am really looking forward to using the press.
Loving the videos so helpful, and I love the pretty pliers xx, I can hear u ok, think you have a lovely soothing voice xx
Awwwwe thank you! I realized after filming that my Grandma gave me those. So funny that I had each of my grandparents’ tools in one video.
@@CharmingCheek that’s lovely, treasure them. My son is a carpenter and unfortunately in England a lot of tradesman’s van are being broken into and their tools stolen, my son being one of these victims £7,000 worth gone. He had tools that both his grandads had passed down, and they are not worth anything but it’s the sentimental value and now they have gone 😢
Helpful, thanks!
Thanks so much! I hope you never need to use it!
Thank you again for sharing this. Your tutorials are so informative. Thank you 🙏🏽🥰❤️
Phew! I always worry people are out there rolling their eyes at me! Thanks Keleesha!
@@CharmingCheek I truly appreciate you doing these videos. I just wish I had a circuit or one of the cutting machines. You teach me things that I always ask myself but don’t know how to do them at times. Again thank you 🙏🏽🥰❤️
@@keleeshamarley7178 it’s honestly a privilege to do them. Thank you!
Thank you you made it look so easy
Thanks for watching, Jen! With this method it really is easy. I wish I would have figured it out before I wasted some of my precious Backstitch vinyl! I’m still bitter over that one!
@@CharmingCheek wish I could find a rivet one that cheap like the snap think my hubby needs to make me one
@@jenpatterson8309 I think I’m getting closer to a solution for those. Letting it percolate in my noggin until it falls into place.
I wish I could hear you better. Or maybe you'd turn on the cc....please? Thanks
Okay! Let me see if I can figure out how to get the CC to work.
It looks like CZcams will add them automatically but it takes some time to generate. I'm so sorry! On my end it's loud when I turn up the volume on my computer or phone. Is it my enunciation or volume - or both?
@@CharmingCheek You have a lovely voice and speak clearly and concisely. Nice! It’s the volume. These old ears. Lol.
@@cynforrest thank you! The volume thing is my nemesis! You should see my Google search history on volume control, microphones, audio repair.
But it’s important to get tackled once and for all so I will keep at it - and add CC to my research project, too!
@@CharmingCheek You are such a lovely lady. Thank you. I’m sure I’m not the only set of Old Ears out here. Love your Channel and all the interesting things you present. You are worth whatever challenge or hurdle!! Thank you.
