Business InformationHistory/background
My 6 children are avid athletes and dancers, so I started making clever buttons for them. I received such a fantastic response from friends & their families that I decided to share my buttons with the world through eBay. We live at Catfeather Farm and have a small flock of sheep along with a goat & a donkey named Luvy. My varied craft interests seemed like a logical next step to help fiber lovers like myself share their hobbies. From a lifetime of antique collecting I also saw a need for buttons that would enhance people’s enjoyment and their ability to collect. I’m also a passionate gardener and love collecting all types of plants plus flower frogs. And sometimes, I just create pins that make me laugh.

Paypal Preferred. Money Orders, eChecks & Cashiers Checks also welcome. I like to ship purchases without lengthy waiting periods, so I do not accept personal checks.

I ship internationally. I ship every Monday, Wednesday & Friday – so quick delivery is assured!
I offer generously low combined shipping rates...Bid or buy individual buttons or magnets from any category in my vast store inventory & they ship for just an additional 25 cents each. I have very rigorous packaging procedures to ensure that my buttons/magnets arrive safely in your mailbox. I first carefully plastic wrap my buttons/magnets, add protective bubble wrap & finally secure it all with a protective sealant layer adhered to your packing list - all enclosed in an envelope addressed to you!

Why I named my store 'Emblazon Yourself'
American Heritage Dictionary
em·bla·zon (ěm-blā'zən)

1b. To inscribe (a prominent marking) on a surface
2. To make resplendent with brilliant colors.
3. To make illustrious; celebrate
Buttons, Pins, Pinbacks, Badges - any other names?
Just different words for the same thing. I suppose it's one of those 'creek' vs. 'crick' things...where you refer to it differently based on what part of the world you're from.
