Create your buttonsCompare the three sizes

Three sizes. Actual relative size.

This is the part that is hard to picture from a number. The 3 inch face is twice the diameter of the 1.5 inch and therefore 4 times the area.
The 3 button sizes drawn at true relative scaleCircles at their real relative size, resting on one line. 1.5 inch is 1.5 inches across, 2.25 inch is 2.25 inches across, 3 inch is 3 inches across. Doubling the diameter quadruples the printable face, so the largest disc is drawn visibly four times the area of the smallest rather than twice its size. The dashed ring inside each face is that size's safe area for artwork.1.5 in2.25 in3 in

Drawn at true relative scale. The price is per button and does not change with quantity.

One price per button. At every quantity.

Most button sites price on a volume ladder, so a flat number can look like something is missing. It is not. This is the whole price list.
Your total is the quantity times the price for that size. There is nothing else to add and no break point to reach for.

There are no quantity discounts and no price tiers: ten buttons cost the same each as five hundred. There is no order minimum either, and the configurator accepts up to 1,000 per design.

How it works

Four steps, and you can do all of them in a few minutes.

  1. Pick your size

    1.5 inch, 2.25 inch, 3 inch. Each one has its own page.

  2. Upload your artwork

    A logo, a photo, a design, a scan. We print it full color across the whole face.

  3. Choose your quantity

    1 to 1,000 per design, at the same price per button either way.

  4. We make your buttons

    Printed, punched and assembled in the shop. We get in touch first if the file needs a decision.

Create your buttons

Your artwork, printed edge to edge

One thing about buttons surprises almost everybody, and it is worth knowing before you make a file: the printed circle is bigger than the button.
A 3 inch button and its three diametersThe printed circle is 3.451 inches across and the sheet is punched at that diameter. The finished button is 3 inches. Artwork that has to stay readable belongs inside the 2.875 inch safe circle. The hatched ring between the finished face and the cut line folds over the metal shell and crimps underneath, so nothing printed in it is visible on the finished button.Cut line3.451 inFinished face3 inSafe area2.875 inThis ring folds under the shell

Make your file this size and fill it edge to edge. The hatched ring is punched with the button and then folded underneath, so it can carry background and nothing else.

Keep text, a logo edge, a face or a code inside here. The button curves away before it reaches its own rim, so art that stops at the face is already tilting out of view.

PNG, JPG and PDF all work, and a vector PDF or a large PNG with a transparent background is cleanest for a logo. We print at 300 dots per inch across the whole face and we keep your original upload rather than a flattened preview, so the production file comes from what you actually sent.

You do not need design software to order. One good image of your logo or your photo is enough.
