Hi, welcome to Expert Village. I'm Gretchen Soares with Butterfly Boutique. Now we are ready to mark for our snaps. We are going to maker four inches up from the bottom of the bib and approximately an inch over. In were going to put a little tiny dot there and we are going to do the same thing on the other side. This is for the body snap and the end snaps we are going to come up where there is some fabric and going to mark about an inch in a half up for the second one. This gives us two different sizes so as our baby grows we can adjust the bib. We are going to mark the same thing on the other strap. For the snap we are using just plain decorative pearl snaps and the come in packages you can get them at the fabric store or Wal-Mart very inexpensively. We open the box there are all these different sizes. You want to make sure you match the proper side up. So the pearl side which we are going to do on the front goes with the snap size which looks like a little disc. I'm going to two of those over here. In then the strap size is going to have the little prong, two of those and to of the little connector parts.
