Hi there-

I really love my button maker from American Button Machines. They are pricey, but the machine is very heavy duty and well worth the price. My students and clubs have made SO MANY buttons this year. The 2.25 inch school bundle is what I purchased. The software it comes with isn't great, but my students use Canva for their designs. Their customer support staff has been super helpful. It was about $40 less than the current website price when I got a quote. I should mention that I have NOT had good luck with off-brand buttons from Amazon. The sizing is very specific, so I order supplies directly from them.
