Buttons, buttons, and MORE BUTTONS!!!

I'm not entirely sure where this thread was supposed to go so feel free to move it mods~!

Anyways, I'm trying to get my hands on a button machine so I can start selling buttons at a convention booth. I was wondering what size button is most convenient and likeable to you? My boyfriend likes the 1.25 inch ones because they fit around the rim of his beanie, but other people have different uses for them. Please let me know what size you think is best and feel free to comment with why you like that particular size! Oh, and what kinds of things you'd like to see on your buttons!

Thanks so much for your input~!  ;)

I'm thinking about buying a button maker too! ^^ I really like the smaller buttons because they usually have backs that don't unclasp easily. Being the paranoid person i am, I'm always checking my purse to see if any pins fell off but i don't really have to do that when its the small buttons.

I agree, and big buttons move around too much. They'res o heavy that they just flop around on shirts and stuff. :P

Dang! But i guess it would be worth it in the long run if you sell buttons. I know that I would make buttons out of EVERYTHING xD

Same here! And if you sell them for $1 each you'll make up the money before you hit the halfway mark! :D
