8. Clear Nail Polish For Buttons
If you don’t have time to follow step 29 but your button is about to pop off and you can see the thread fraying, grab some clear nail polish. If you put a dollop on the fraying thread, it will dry and prevent the button from falling off. Make sure you give it sufficient time to dry though, or you’ll get it everywhere. This isn’t a long term solution but it will definitely help when you need it most.
