Paper Inlay diameter = Foil diameter
Always cut the paper clean and round, preferably with a
circle cutter or a paper punch.
Basically, you CAN also use other, thicker or thinner paper or other
material, for example fabric, wrapping paper, even leaves, etc... The
thing is, we simply cannot guarantee you that it will work out. We
can not give you a universal recipe to make a 100% perfect button
anyway. You cannot make any damage , so don`t worry. Just try
it out!
There are some tricks how you will be able to use the material any-
way. For example, by cutting it out to a smaller diameter (so that it
doesn‘t have to be crimped), by placing an additional paper inlay
underneath, or by using the foil and then peeling it off the finished
button later.
