Okay, so I finally got my hands on this button maker kit after seeing it all over Pinterest. First impression? The box was STUFFED with goodies - like seriously, 500 buttons parts?! That's commitment.
The 3 different mold sizes are legit useful. Made tiny 1" buttons with my niece's doodles and 2.25" ones for my band's merch. Pro tip: watch their YouTube tutorials before attempting the magnets - took me 2 failed attempts before I got it right.
My artist friend's teen basically commandeered this machine. Made like 50 buttons in one sitting? The quality surprised me - smooth backs, no sharp edges. Used stickers, photos, even old comic book pages. That QR code with 500+ designs is lowkey genius though.
Only complaint? The instruction manual could be clearer. Had to play detective with all the tiny washers and parts. But once you get the hang of it - *chef's kiss* - so satisfying to hear that click when the button seals!
10/10 would recommend for crafty teens, small businesses, or anyone who needs personalized gifts. Just maybe buy extra keychain parts - those were the real MVP.
