Custom Orders are catching on


I make custom made personalized buttons. However, with over 1,500 buttons in the shop that are already made and ready to be chosen, I think some people don't see the custom made choices.

Last night I got an order for 3 custom made buttons and had fun making them. Since I am just learning to use Photoshop, it takes me so much time to make one button, that I figure I earn about a nickel an hour.

The hand drawn, and hand lettered custom orders, as in the "Baby Button" are easier and faster for me to do.

I made these buttons for a customer, took photos of them, sent the photos to the customer to "proof" them before they bought them.

The customer was happy, I was happy, it was a fun experience.

More of the custom made buttons I can make for you are in this section of my shop.

Portable Graffiti Buttons Selling on Etsy.com



Back in the late 70s I started Portable Graffiti, making buttons to sell at arts and crafts shows and fairs, large and small from the Cornhill Festival to the New York State Fair, from Bangor, Maine down to Key West, Florida, and as far east as Boston, and west as far as San Francisco. Now I make them at home and used to sell them on Etsy.

You can now find these buttons at my big shop on Zibbet.

I have collectible rock and roll buttons from the 70s and 80s.
Some newer band.
Nostalgia such as old TV shows and cartoons and comic book characters.

I make custom made buttons, any message you want on a button.

I also have some old advertising and collectible buttons.
