Design Team Openings – Calling all Crafters!

 We have a few openings on our design team we want to fill with YOU! 

Do you have a love of a love of buttons, a passion for color, an eye for design and it shows in everything you touch? Well, It is time for you to embrace your talent and design skills can give them the spotlight they deserve!

We’re looking for a few designers who love buttons, to add to our existing and wonderfully talented design team.  We want people who can create fun, fresh, functional and innovative project ideas for our blog, online galleries and other materials.

Are you good with a camera? Even better. Because those dynamic, brilliantly shot, perfectly cropped photos give your designs a definite edge.

Here’s what you need to do:

Send us images of your favorite 3-5 projects. The ones that really highlight your mad design skills.  One hard and fast rule – they have to be your own original creations. 

We’ll announce our new design team on Feb 4, 2013.
