I made my own buttons.

oh my gosh, i made my own buttons.......

i must say, mixing the resin and color, i was disappointed and had planned to sell 

all my button making parts.

not anymore.......i'm loving it

the resin is clear and you add color

reading up on this before i started it all

i was really confused on the color and how to add it

one person suggested not using food coloring cause in some types of resin,

it don't mix well..........i tired it and had no problem

i used green in this batch

you have to be really careful with the smallest buttons, it's easy to pour to much and cover the button holes

 i don't know what's up with the yellow tinted background...ewww

anyway........here's my first batch.......their still soft, see last pic

 see how some are darker and thicker than others?

well, that's where i got happy pouring the resin

this is what they were like this evening, this is 24 hours after pouring

it takes 72 to create a solid hard button
