Stevens is also a vocalist and has two songs that he wrote about all of his creations.
"I have a unique song and it goes like this," he said. "If you like the color of my clothes, would you give me buttons instead of a rose. Buttons can be square or round, they keep my pants from falling down."
His other song, "Insomniac Shuffle" is as follows: "Give me a bag of buttons, buttons are my bag, I start sewing buttons before my eyes begin to sag. Buttons will make or break me when I sign the big contract, then I'll be the richest of all insomniacs."
As of this time, Stevens has no plans of creating any more of his patented items.
These days he enjoys spending time with his wife of 50 years and his three children, two grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
"I just got tired of going," Stevens said. "I decided that if people want to see it they can come to me."
Recently he just opened a museum to showcase all of his creations.
The museum is located off of Highway 34 between Bishopville and Camden and is open six days a week.Admission to the museum is free, but Stevens does accept donations.
