"Have You Heard About 'Rivet'? A More Stylish Alternative to Grommet Punches for adorably Fastening Your Paper Items!"

What Comes to Mind for Fastening Paper Items?

When we think of a classic DIY way to fasten paper items for weddings, it's the "Eyelet Punch"!

This tool punches holes in paper items and attaches a metal ring to the paper, making it easy to use and stylish.

It's often used to attach thank-you tags by threading ribbons or strings through.

Discover an Even Cuter Item for Fastening Paper Items!

The standard eyelet punches come in gold and silver. While they are already very stylish on their own...

In fact, I’ve found another tool that can fasten paper cutely!

It's called "Rivet"! Instead of a ring, you can attach a stud on one side, and there are various colors and shapes available, making it incredibly fashionable!

What’s the Difference Between Eyelet Punch and Rivet?

The eyelet punch is a tool for making holes and fastening paper items, but the rivet fastens by covering the hole with a stud after puncturing.

Eyelets leave a hole in the center, so you can thread strings, but

Rivets don’t leave a hole, so strings or ribbons cannot be threaded through.

However, rivets come in various designs, making it a delightful aspect and a difference between the two!
