Video transcript

  1. 0:00Built like a pin-back badge, a button mirror pairs domed artwork with a mirror on the back. Glass reflects sharpest but can shatter; acrylic resists shattering but scratches. Children's items need third-party testing and a certificate.
  2. 0:15Choose size from unprinted blanks, not drawings: test the wallet slot, the mirror area and rattle in a mailer. Round shells use existing tooling; hearts or silhouettes may need new tooling.
  3. 0:28Back-print art needs three zones: a wrap that folds away, the visible face, an inner safe zone. Keep a QR flat on the back and scan-test it at actual size.
  4. 0:41Approve a physical sample against a checklist and photograph it as the reference. A cloudy face is usually unpeeled film. Then schedule backward from the in-hand date, with one correction buffer.
  5. 0:55Send artwork, quantity range, channel and in-hand date.
