I'm a fan of press studs for smaller puppets. The fraggles used this method.

Yeah, Whats a pressed stud I'm curious too!

I use Doll joints that rachet into place. None of my puppets arms have came off yet.

Can't think of an accurate definition I'm afraid. Think poppers/fastners on some coats, with a male part and a female part. Google is your friend...especially google images. It shows what I means.

A pressed stud is a good looking guy with pressure from everyone!(insert Fozzie smilie)

I think I knwo what your talking about is it like a hoop and loop and they snap together, and ther very small. I don't know what they're called but I think i've seen them at the fabric store.
