Snaps

What kind of snaps are on your diapers?  Metal, plastic?  Has anyone purchased a snap applicator for fixing snaps or making your own diapers?  what do you recommend?

    My diapers have plastic (I think it's actually resin, not sure if there's a difference) snaps.  I did buy a snap applicator but haven't made my own diapers yet.  I made mama cloth though and I used the plastic snaps for those and it's worked great!  HTH.

    Thanks, we're trying to figure out what would be best so that's a great place to start!

    Plastic, definitely. You don't want metal snaps with all the moisture that cloth diapers are subjected to...

    I have snap pliers from here:

    LOVE 'EM! I've used them to fix snaps on existing diapers, to convert velcro diapers to snaps, and to make my own diapers, as well as other uses (e.g. clothes). They're great!
