SEMINI Hidden Sew Magnetic Snap Invisible Hidden Sew in PVC Hidden Purse Closure for Fastener Handbag Cloth Clasp DIY Craft Sewing Tools

The plastic is difficult to sew through but the idea is so clever and it’s really easy to hide where needed. My husband also wall mounted this in our bedroom drapes so we have superb sun blocking. He used a small screw through the plastic. We could have used glue but these are so small you can’t see them unless you’re looking. But what weirdo is going to come into your room and move your window curtain to judge this magnet being there?Very strong magnet for size. The plastic is maybe too strong but I think it’s great for what I needed. If you hate it, simply cut it off. It’s like a little pouch. It’s not like suspended in acrylic or something. Good value in my opinion. When we need more I’ll literally look through old orders before searching for new ones.

These are perfection for my bag making purposes. If any review says these are not strong, then they are just not using them correctly. One side is the strong magnetic side, one is not. Also if it's not paired up with its original mate, they will repel each other and not attract. They are great as semi hidden magnets in my bags (all you can see is the stitching holding it). I tried other magnets that are not as strong. You know because you can pull them apart easily just on their own. These I have to wedge a little tool between the pairs to separate them. So then when there's fabric between them also they're still very strong. Only when I had a super thick upholstery fabric was it less strong. And you know I love these because Amazon says I've purchased them 9 times!

*****EDITED/UPDATED: I take it back- go look for BETOPLIN 20mm MAGNETS here on amazon. They are strong, amazing and the ones you’ve been searching for- TRUST ME! *****I have been looking for reasonably priced, fairly strong magnets like these to sew inside as handbag clotures. I found great ones at Tandy Leather but they are between $7-9 just for one pair and homie don’t play that. I took a chance on these bc of the high ratings as well as the flat, oblong rectangular shape of them and they are EXACTLY what I was looking for. I purchased the largest ones listed here which are 10 x 30mm and I was so pleased I immediately ordered 2 more sets. I also purchased Annie’s set of two pairs of round purse closure magnets and while they are also great, these ones here are actually stronger and you get SO many for nearly the same price. Sorry Annie! If you are also searching for purse closures give these a try! I hope this review helps someone out there as I rely on them so much! :)

These are small, come in two different "colors", so match a "silver" with a "gold" and the magnet is much stronger (I'm sure there is some physics involved here but I wasn't aware of this option).They hold well through cotton fabric, not so well through leather. And they fall off my finger unlike in the picture demonstrated here!

These magnets have a very strong hold. They are a bit too thick for some of my applications. However, they are very strong so they are a really good deal for the amount you get. Good to have on hand for so many different projects.

Very hard to pierce to sew them in.

I’ve been tucking these in to many of sewing tool projects for a simple needle minder. The design only allows for one side to be magnetic but it has been perfect to tuck into projects.

These were easy to see inside the chairback slipcovers I made to keep them in place and retain the ability to be reversed.
