How to add a Paypal button to my site

During the lockdown period I started painting Mandala Stones and really enjoyed the experience. While working on the stones, I developed a table for holding the stones and the online community really liked the idea. People wanted to buy copies of the table but as they are worldwide it wasn't a possibility so I made a set of plans with instructions on how people could make their own version of the table.
With help from the Heroes and others on here, I added a new page to my photography website just for the Mandala Stones and I would like if possible to sell the plans from that page. Problem is I do not really know how to do it. The only thought I have has is to add a button or some kind of link to Paypal where people can buy the plans. Any help or advice would be most welcome.

If you want to create a PayPal button, then follow the instructions from PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/us/smarthelp/article/how-do-i-add-a-paypal-payment-button-to-my-website-faq3629
Once you've created your button, add a HTML/CSS Block and drop the button code into the HTML section. Keep in mind that SmugMug doesn't allow Javascript, so the button must only use HTML.

Thanks for the help Mike. I'll give it a try.
As an update, I managed to add the Paypal "Buy Now" button and really pleased with it.
When I've had others test it and buy the plans, they have all said they didn't get any form of message letting them know the plans were on their way. Does anyone who uses a "Buy Now" button know if it is at all possible to send out a message letting the buyer know their plans are on the way?
Again, any help or advice would be most appreciated.
