BADGES IN BERLIN, BUTTONS IN BERLIN, PINS IN BERLIN.




In Britain we call them badges, in Germany they're called buttons, in the USA they call them pins, but they also like to say buttons as well.
Anyway I had a design emergency recently and neeeeded to make some badgebuttonpins here in Berlin. I tried several places but in the end I found the BEST.
His name is Patty, he makes 100% classic trad 25mm metal badges from the designs you give to him.
Wonderful stuff. Not expensive either.
There's something cool about badges that'll probably always be cool, and when you have a bag full of new ones they make a lovely jingling sound.
Here's Patty's website: www.maechtigeshaeuflein.de.vu

... thanks to Nils for the tip!

Nils,
the badges were so good, exactly what I needed. Great printing too.
Liked the "vinyl nerd" cartoon on your blog... not sure which category I fall into though!
