I'd rather sew in a zipper using only my feet than come up with a subject line.

Thank you everyone for your kind thoughts and support. I'm doing better now, but still prone to break into tears every time I look over at where their cage used to be (I had to pack up their things that day, so I wasn't seeing reminders of them everywhere). I almost feel guilty grieving, you know? Like, I shouldn't be crying; they're just pets.

Pets aren't "just pets", they're members of the family and you have every right to mourn for them. So hang in there and mourn all you need to.

I'm super anal about photographing my work too, so you're not alone. I'm dreading the coming winter and the lack of light that comes with it, making taking photos a pain in the bum.

The badges are all super cute, and "I looove ceeeereallll" (and Cheese too). :D

The little faces are adorable!

And speaking from personal experience, it's better to grieve and deal with things sooner rather than later. Just because they're pets doesn't make them any less important than people.

If pets weren't important, we wouldn't have them. So it is right for you to be upset.

So these pretty badges you can now make with your super badge machine... would you consider doing commercial designs?
Examples:

Also something that says 'Morpheme Addict'.
Our student association has been throwing some ideas about badges around recently, in a reckless, maybe-maybe-not sort of way, so I thought I would ask you.

[twocheeseplease]

Would I ever! I love playing with the badgerermakerer machine, I just need an excuse! It's so addictive >_>

[buriramtourakom]

Hurrah! How much would you charge for such designs? And how many could you do? We would need to resell at a slightly higher price to justify the expenditure...

Well if I was selling my buttons, I would sell them for $2 retail. So $1 for you and then you can sell them for $2 and make a profit?

I have about 80 shells I can make-up, but to account for defects maybe... 60 buttons?
