These fun button covers let you spice up any dress shirt for a party, date night, or just to goof around.  With a Wizard of Oz inspired design, start with the top button to encourage someone to "FOLLOW THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD" to whatever you imagine the Wizard to be ;)

I went with button caps instead of full buttons because a 3d printed button seems like a great thing to take on and off your clothes for special occasions or as your mood changes.  These caps slide onto most standard men's dress shirt button sizes easily without falling off, but you can always just increase or decrease scale slightly to get the best fit.  Can work for men or women equally. 

This does not require MMU to print as each color is on separate layers.  Since some printers don't allow for changing color easily and some users aren't comfortable changing colors, I've added several versions of these.  I have 3MF files for 1, 2, and full 3 color options, as well as 2 and 3 layer STL files.  The 2 layer has the brick lines recessed, while the 3 layer has the lines on top of the base to allow for color changing without MMU. I recommend turning Ironing on for all top layers for the best finish as shown in my pics.

The whole set of buttons in 3 colors print in just over an hour on the Prusa I3 Mk3S.
