Big impact without going oversized; that's the appeal of 3-inch buttons. This size gives photos, detailed artwork, and bold lettering plenty of room while staying comfortable to wear all day. It's a favorite among museum stores, gift shops, boutiques, and organizations that want merchandise and giveaways with real shelf presence. We've been perfecting custom 3-inch buttons since 1896, and every order gets the same craftsmanship-quality attention.
A Size That Works Hard for Your Business
3 inch button pins are versatile enough to cover most of what a business needs:

-
Staff and volunteer identification that's easy to read at a glance

The people buttonworks helped me get amazing buttons fast and they worked with me even with the design I had was hard to make.
Our second order of buttons. Easy to use and very efficient.
I have been exceedingly impressed with Buttonworks from start to finish. Proof copies of my design were sent promptly. Customer Service (a real live human being) answered the phone on the third ring and pleasantly and thoroughly answered my questions. My completed order was ready and shipped in an eyeblink. And, most important, I am thrilled with the resulting badges for our 2026 dog club specialty.
I will not hesitate to buy from this company again and will heartily recommend Buttonworks to anyone who asks.
Good job
Start to finish it was easy. Gave them an image, went through a couple of proofs and got delivered in less than a week!
