@livvycat_13: Update: I only ask people if they mention it. I’m not intending to ruin costumes- it is usually vendors or people in street clothes that will give them to me and are excited in my quest for buttons. I wore it for another half day on Sunday and got 8 buttons, all very willing participants. 🧵 The least amount in the past has been three. This was just disappointing considering all the men in button downs I asked. #comiccon #buttons

Button downs generally aren’t cheap, most people aren’t going to damage an article of clothing just to give a stranger one of their buttons. Especially if they aren’t getting anything in return

why would someone just give you a part of their costume that they took so much time to make? you're expecting them to rip it off and just hand it to you?

It's a great idea, but I'm afraid a lot of people don't think to carry extra buttons on them

Most people don’t carry spare buttons around 😭 maybe at renfairs where it’s expected some will carry various trinkets .

If ur asking cosplayers I kinda get why a lot of them say no 😭 their outfit probably took hours to make/a ton of money. Tbh I think comiccon would be great for pins tho

Does someone have to cut a button off their clothes to give it to you? I haven’t been to con in a long time so I don’t know if this is like an established thing

People usually don’t have pre-made buttons on them, but a lot of people do trinket trades if you’re carrying something small to give away too!

Ok like, the thing I don't understand is the amount of comments acting like taking one button off is completely ruining the garment? Most clothing with buttons already HAVE spare buttons sewn onto-

send me a DM with your address. I randomly acquired this lady's whole life in championship bowling pins. they've sat in a drawer for years because I couldn't find a use for them but knew they were loved and I think they have been waiting for you.

how would you realistically expect a man in a button down shirt to give you a button? is he meant to cut off the button from his shirt, or take off the shirt and give you the extra button that may or may not be there? i understand your idea, i'm just not sure where the buttons are supposed to be coming from.

Idea: you have another person going around giving out buttons in an unrelated fashion. Time passes, people forget they've been given a button, then they see you! Set up and payoff achieved.

I don’t know what you thought was going to happen people aren’t just going to cut buttons off their clothes and hand them over. There are no “extra buttons” on a shirt idk what the plan was here
