Ordered a toy!

I ordered a machine for making pinbacks (like the buttons pictured above).

I’m so excited! I’ve been looking at them for probably two years. I wanted to get a good one and I didn’t want to spend the money, but my mom helped me out this time.

I’m thinking about starting an Etsy store if I can figure it out.

I like art, even if I kind of suck at it, but on a small scale I think it could be really fun.

It’s for 2 and 1/4” (58cm) buttons so I think that’s a good size.

I want to make mental health awareness pins (obviously), and I will probably end up with some pride stuff since everyone knows I love rainbows.

I don’t know exactly what else I will make, but I want to make stuff.

I could see myself recreating old campaign buttons too since I’m such a history nerd if there seemed to be an interest in that…

Anyway, I’m just excited.

It comes next week! I’ve been checking the tracking every few hours. I doubt it’s going to change. It weighs 38 pounds!!

It’s got all of the materials for starting too, which is helpful.

Yay!!!
