“Slow down” Not your average button pin! Designed by us, all of our pins are manufactured locally by a woman-owned business in a solar-powered, geothermal factory (see below). On top of that, while we all love the classic glossy buttons, these feel extra special with a super soft velvet matte finish. We are proud to get our buttons made by a business with a green manufacturing process: ~ printed on recycled and sustainably reforested FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified papers ~ made with local recycled steel ~ made in a solar-powered century-old factory renovated with eco-friendly insulation, geothermal heating and cooling, and reclaimed building materials ~ made with materials from nearly all local suppliers "Freethinker Paper Co." appears along the rim of each button. Pins are sent without packaging, to be displayed in bowls or as you wish.
