I've recently encountered two different magnetic systems that might work with tatting. I'm looking for experiences anyone might have with either method.
The first is a magnetic "NAME TAG" that is very strong (not for use with pacemakers); it will capture the outside tag along a bar. The name tag is glued to the outside bar. I was thinking the tatting could be glued to the bar.
The second is a package of magnets that look more like decorative buttons of different sizes. Tatting could be attached to the buttons, but chances are you'll have to modify the manufacturers decoration on the button.
My thought was that we could apply flowers, etc on jackets, blouses, etc., and you'd be able to remove the tatting before the garment was washed or cleaned, and quickly re-apply.
