Shirt & Pants Buttons

[gbougard]

Hi again:

I would love to customize  a couple of pairs of pants and a couple of denim shirts with different buttons.

Is there like a button guru you guys know about?

Alternatively, how easy is it to change metal buttons, I have a notion to try it meself and express my artistic creativity this way… Anybody done changing their buttons? Please show pix, that will be fascinating!

Thanks

I have a hand press that does the metal button thing.  I don't have the particulr dye for butons, having had no need to date (but it's like a $10 tool).  I use it for stamping holes in the belts when adjusting the size and for the application of rivets…

I've bought Levi's and Lee buttons from this place in the past, to add as suspender buttons to cinchback jeans.

They were a pleasure to deal with - very accommodating and cheap, fast shipping for a small order to the UK. The company is based in the US. Highly recommended.

Sorry this thread didn't develop to make my button hunting easier.

Good try

@Sreeni, it's a three and a half year old post… possible the site/ company no longer exists.

@dylantbmayes - I thought so too. I found a few good ones on Etsy. Any other suggestions?
