One button.
One of a kind.
Then it's gone.
Magazine photos cut out by hand, paired with a phrase that talks back, and pressed into a one-inch button. Every single one exists exactly once.

The buttons
When one sells, it's gone for good. We don't make copies.
Doubles and triples
Themed bundles of two or three buttons that belong together.
How we make them
Dig
We go through old magazines page by page looking for a picture nobody else would pick.
Cut and paste
Scissors and glue. The picture gets a phrase, or a page of text gets blacked out until a poem is left.
Press
One pull of the button press and it's done. The original is the button, so there is never a second one.
Blackout poetry buttons
Found poems made from magazine text. We cross out everything except the words that were hiding in there.
Who we are
Meme Coin is a button making business started by a 5th grader and his mom who love to make things by hand. In a world increasingly inundated with AI art, we enjoy spending our time poring over old magazines, books we find at garage sales and Goodwill, and discarded paper products to find the perfect, one-of-a-kind images for our buttons.
Each button is crafted with care, from finding the right image, to picking the right accompanying phrase, to hand pressing the button itself. Our commitment is to slow down and make one-of-a-kind wearable art that is uniquely yours.
The fine print
Shipping
$1.50 flat per order, no matter how many buttons. We mail them in a stamped envelope, backed with recycled cardboard. There is no tracking.
Buying at a craft fair or picking up locally? No shipping charge.
Returns
All sales are final. Every button is one of a kind, so we can't swap it for another copy.
If yours shows up damaged or the pin doesn't work, email us a photo within 14 days. We'll refund you or you can pick a different button. Keep the broken one.
