Making Button Badges

badges

Have you heard of the Sticky Institute? Well it is a super tiny place, with super great benches to work on, plus typewriters plus badge makers & supplies.... oh yer and its full of zines!! To find it head to Degraves Subway.

Ainsley and I have made it our home away from home and last Friday we decided to make some themaybepile badges and some business cards as well!!

To make the badges we just cut out appropriately sized circles from gift paper, and plain coloured paper. Then Ainsley typed ( using the type writer) ' themaybepile' on each circle. Then using the badge making equipment supplied by sticky we easily put them together, in a matter of minutes we had 29 beauitful badges ( and one that I made that wasn't so good... oopps).

Typewriting on Badges

We also made some business cards, using a stamp Ainsley had created and her corner rounder.

Stamping

By afternoon tea time we had made some great things to hand out at the Finders Keepers market, to let people know how to find our blog.

Standby for a post all about our favourite stall holders, this Friday!
