today i wanted to mention this great book on a subject that has really been fascinating me lately, badges. in the USA they can be called buttons or pins, hence the name of this book 'badge, button, pin' by gavin lucas. so many talented designers, illustrators, and crafters are producing badges these days that they have become a popular artform to collect. they are small, fun, and low priced which is even better !. there was a debate over at decor8 just last week about how to wear them, or if to wear them at all. i like to pin them on bags or just display in my home. if you are one of the many people either collecting or making badges then this book is essential. its not a look a retro collections but is instead a comprehensive look at the current contemporary marketplace. click here to buy, or find out more, on amazon UK or here for amazon USA. or just make a note of the ISBN number below to order locally.
