Step 7Finishing up
Check your circuit against the diagram and watch out for fraying thread shorts. Set the switch to the "off" position or make sure your snap halves aren't touching each other. Insert the battery into the holder. It goes in at an angle, then push it down. The + side goes up (the side with the writing). Push down the battery to make sure it's flush and completely in.
Turn it over and flip the switch or snap the snap. The lights should come on! If they don't, turn it off and check for good connections and shorts.
Trim the fabric within 1.5 inches of the edge. Use regular thread and a running stitch to gather the edge on the back side. Here's the back. You can change the battery when it dies. If you leave it on 24/7, it should last 1-2 weeks, gradually getting dimmer as time goes on. Enjoy!
