Button Mania

I’ve gone button crazy lately . . .

Making more of the old and 6 new ones, I’ve been thinking in buttons! Perhaps it has something to do with my love of tiny art—a 3 inch button is the ultimate in tiny art—it’s portable, wearable, and the round shape is a lot of fun! Here I am at Sacramento’s 2nd Saturday Art Walk this past Saturday sporting my new thrifted button vest:

I’ll be posting more photos soon—I’m still deciding how to handle buttons in my Etsy shop. They’re such a small item that I’ve kept from listing them on Etsy because it’s hard to figure out how to list them and still make the selling fees to me and shipping fees to the buyer worthwhile—would you rather buy a single button or a group of “you choose” buttons? If I only listed a group of buttons, would you feel frustrated because you really just want one? Thanks for the help!

    I think you can sell them in groups of 5 for $5 and no one will be too upset. You can even give people the choice of which buttons they get in their group of 5.
