[Hidden-tech] * * * Local small qty. button vendor? * * *

[Deborah Chandler]

Thanks, everyone, for your ideas...

My research has shown:
• Silver Screen isn't really set up, or cost-effective, for small
quantities.
• Michael's Craft and other similar stores sell DIY plastic buttons which
are lesser quality and don't close securely, but are cheap to buy.
Creatology is the brand. Several different sizes available.
• Guild Art Center in Northampton makes 1" and 1 1/2" buttons for 95¢ -
$1.50 each, (less for higher quantities) and if they can, they'll do it in
as little as 20 minutes if a small quantity. You provide your own artwork,
printed on a full sheet of printer paper, and they punch it out, and
assemble the buttons. This is where I'm going to go for this project. Even
though the size is a smaller than I initially wanted, the quality and
timing wins out.

Thanks again,
Deb
