How to Add a Magnetic Snap

"Does your sewing pattern tells you to use a magnetic snap but doesn’t give any instructions? No worries, here’s a short and easy tutorial on how to add a magnetic snap to any sewing project. I love a magnetic snap on my bags, it’s so easy to use and convenient and most snaps are pretty sturdy too and a touch of classy to any purse or bag. Any magnetic snap will have 2 prongs and 2 washers. You’re also going to need to use some scraps of interfacing and some padding (optional)."
