I spent 1 and a half days making all my buttons. I made about 400 buttons, and I believe 1 in the bag was dysfunctional, and I messed up 3 buttons. That is one shitload of buttons. I don't know if I want to do the 'buy 5, get one free' deal since just about everyone else in the other tables sells their buttons for 1.25 or more each, and I'm already selling mines for a dollar. That, and this year I made some fanart buttons, and I am sure they are going to sell much quicker than anything else.
I'm not just selling buttons this time, I'm selling prints too :3
I have over 500+ mylars from buttons, despite the fact that I just made all my buttons already. If anyone wants spare 1 1/4 button mylars just ask me for some :/
I get this question a lot -_-' It's a small metal press, where you put little metal templates on the machine, and then the artwork, and then you basically press the two pieces of metals (one piece holding the artwork and a slide of shiny plastic mylar and smooth metal surface, the other side holding another piece of metal, but with a pin on the other side). It's like sandwiching two pieces of metal together. The artwork is pre-cut into little circles before putting it through this machine.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
