Fabric monogrammed buttons

Custom monogrammed buttons are growing in popularity and its easier than ever for embroidery shops and monogrammed gift businesses to get in on the action .

Most button making machines are manufactured to produce pinback buttons using regular printer paper. Fabric is a completely different type of material than paper. It is important to have a button maker calibrated properly to accommodate for the challenges in making a button out of fabric material. Proper calibration ensures thefabric button machine will produce consistent quality buttons throughout its life.

 

With a little creativity and the right equipment , an embroidery business can expand their offering of fabric-covered buttons and sell a large variety of novelty buttons with a number of different applications. After cutting the fabric to a specific size with our Circle Cutter or Fabric Cutting Press, a number of different options such as the type we offer on our website www.AmericanButtonMachines.com, can be pressed onto the back of the button to make several different products.

 

A number of different attachments, such as a keychain, zipper pull or cell phone charm can turn any button into a personalized novelty item. This is especially useful for embroidery shops, which can make a personalized fabric button to accessorize any item . There are a number of backs that can be used with a fabric button. While some prefer a pinback to decorate a purse or to wear on clothing, a jacket, or a hat, others might want a more versatile back.

 

Snap-Inz shoe charms are used to turn a fabric button into a shoe charm to decorate Croc shoes. These charms can be glued to the back of a button and simply snapped into place through the holes on the Croc shoes. Another use for fabric buttons is as aponytail holder. This can be accomplished with a special button back that has an eyelet to run a ponytail elastic through. Other specialty kits can include button bracelets andnecklaces, as well as pacifier clips (paci-clip) and keychains.

 

Discerning customers are looking for the latest in quality button making options such as pocket mirrors, ponytail holders, keychains, necklaces, pinback buttons andrefrigerator magnets. Applying a personalized initial monogram to a fabric button is a great way to decorate a favorite item or add personalized flair to a book bag, jacket, purse , or a pair of flip flops.

 

For fear of facing a complicated button making process, many embroiderers have avoided moving into the button phase of their business. However, in all actuality, the monogramming is actually the most challenging part . In fact, the entire process wraps up in three simple steps, and embroidery and monogramming businesses are already masters of the first step.

Step 1: Embroider the monogram on fabric.

Step 2: Cut it out using a circle cutter or fabric circle cutting press.

Step 3: Press all the components together using the Fabric Button Machine.

 

The circle cutter and the fabric circle cutting press can be found at the

American Button Machines website, where you can find all of your button-making solutions.

 

The adjustable rotary circle cutter offers additional functionality as well. It was originally designed for cutting circular graphics and photos for pin-back buttons. However, the products innate durability allows for a variety of uses. For instance, schools, arts and crafts designers, companies, and many others use the versatile cutter to cut circles out of paper, thin plastic, construction paper and poster board.

 

Its pretty safe to say that with the incorporation of both monogramming and buttons, youre well on your way to something new , definitely fun, and with the potential to be very profitable .
