These labels are used in the lining or on the exterior of your bag. On the back or front of your clutch, wallet, or purse.

  1. Determine where you want to place the label (center or not) and draw two small lines on the place where the pins will go through the fabric.
  2. Iron a piece of stabilizer (such as Decovil Light) at the wrong site of the fabric onto the area where you will attach the label. This will prevent tearing.
    To have a tighter fit, put a small piece of fleece over it. You do not need to iron the fleece on.
  3. Make small cuts with your seam ripper through the material, the Decovil, and the fleece.
  4. Insert the prongs through your fabric.
  5. At the back side (wrong side of your fabric), lay the washer over the prongs and then fold the pins as tightly as possible over the washer.
  6. Stick a piece of duck tape or interfacing (fleece) over the prongs and washer so the back of your label will not damage your lining.

The names of the metal finishes we use are

Matt finishes:

  • Electro Black (matt black)
  • Antique brass (rolled brass, uneven),
  • Antique Gold (a duller, ancient kind of gold)
  • Antique Copper (a darker, uneven, dark red/brown finish)
  • Matt Rose Gold (matt red copper-like)
  • Matt Nickel (matt silver with a matt look)

Glossy finishes:

  • Nickel (shiny silver)
  • Gun metal (black nickel)
  • Rose Gold (Shiny red copper)
  • Iridescent Rainbow (This colour varies for each piece, and none of the items is exactly alike. You may get some that are pink, purple, yellow or blue, etc., because they are all different. They don’t change colour but have the look of iridescence. We cannot select specific colours for you)
  • Light Gold (shiny light/warm gold)

These names do not say anything about the actual composition of the product.
If you buy an old Gold lock, it’s not real gold, unfortunately for you ;). Nor are the nickel items made out of nickel.

What is the difference between Antique Brass and Antique gold?

They both do have similar patterns. However, gold is shinier and carries a more yellow tone. Antique Brass has a duller tone and isn’t quite vibrant.

Is your light gold the same as the light gold I buy from….

That is hard to say for the simple reason that there are multiple finishes out there.
Some Shiny gold is more white, others are more yellow, and some have a more red hue.
Our warm gold is the same as you can buy from Emmaline (collection up to 2020), Moremeknow and BringBerry. We have not tested the other companies yet.

Bagmaking

All the items in our webshop are chosen with ‘bagmaking’ in mind. Of course, they can also be used for other purposes (our customers are often very creative in their applications). Still, Serial Bagmakers is not responsible for durability when used outdoors.
