or adhesive 20 through an aperture or buttonhole 19 while holding the button 18 at the desired location the adhesive 20 flows through the buttonhole 19 and onto the surface of card 12 as shown in fig4 a the optimum application of adhesive 20 will fill the buttonhole 19 and overlap the top edge of the buttonhole preferably the buttons 18 are provided with recessed buttonholes 19 and a clear colorless relatively quick setting flowable adhesive is used the buttons 18 can be released after the adhesive 20 has initially set a typical liquid adhesive which can be used is available under the trademark duco cement while the method just described is particularly effective in permitting accurate placement of the buttons 18 an alternate method may be applied and found useful especially when using a smaller diameter button 18 having narrow opening buttonholes for this purpose the adhesive 20 may be first deposited on the card 12 and the button 18 may then be placed over the adhesive 20 and pressure applied to cause the adhesive 20 to flow up into the buttonhole 19 although buttons 18 can have one or more buttonholes 19 it has been found that a sufficiently effective bonding action is provided by filling only one of the buttonholes 19 however with larger or heavier buttons and different bonding agents it may be necessary to utilize more than one hole for effective bonding it should.
