Three Types Of Buttons That Can Easily Be Made And Sold.

 

When you hear the word button making, you might not think of the word fun. But you should. Making buttons is an engaging and entertaining experience. It is made all the enjoyable by the fact that you end up with useful products when you are done. Regardless of whether you are looking to fundraise for a cause you believe in, publicize a campaign or demonstrate support for a person, band, or team, buttons are an amazing solution. There are three types of buttons which make button making a truly joyful and productive activity.

 

Fabric buttons. Some different attachments, for instance, key-chain, zipper pull or cell phone charm can turn any button into a personalized novelty item. This is especially useful for embroidery shops, which can make a customized fabric button to accessorize any item. There are some backs that can be utilized with a fabric button. Whereas some prefer a pin back to decorate a purse, or to put on clothing, jacket or hat, others might like a more versatile pack.

 

Snap-In shoe charms are utilized in turning a fabric button into a shoe charm to decorate Croc shoes. These charms can be attached to the back of a button and easily snapped into place through the holes on the Croc shoes. An additional utilization for fabric buttons is as a ponytail holder. It can be achieved with a special button back that has an eyelet to run ponytail elastic through. Other specialty kits can incorporate button bracelets and necklaces, and also pacifier clips and key chains.

 

Pinback magnetic buttons. They have some uses, and both fabric buttons and photo buttons overlap into this group. However, one specific use for pinback buttons is promoting bands. They have been in use for several years, and some are quite popular as collector`s item, more so for independent bands. Several rock bands in the past sold one-inch pinback buttons with the group`s emblem or name. The tradition of buttons for bands has gone up as more bands look for cheap ways to promote and publicize themselves, an album, show, or a specific song. Also, a lot of bands have evolved to use more than just one-inch buttons for advertisement purposes.

 

Photo buttons. They also have a wide variety of uses. A majority of them seem to revolve around parents making custom pins buttons with pictures of their children.
