Add a colorful and unique touch to your outfit with cheerful, handmade riso print buttons. Each button is made from recycled riso prints, something I do to reuse old riso prints (Less waste! yay!).
The unique texture of the riso printing is clearly visible in each button. Each button is unique, so you will always receive a surprise button. The buttons are 4 cm in size.
Colorful riso print buttons
For each print I use a Japanese printing technique called riso printing. This technique uses an environmentally friendly and rice-based ink which results in the fluorescent and cheerful hues that bring the prints to life. Because each color is a separate layer that goes through the riso printer, the layer sometimes shifts and each print has its own unique texture and character, making each print original and just a little bit different. It is a sustainable and unique way of printing
One of the characteristics of riso prints is that they never dry completely. They always remain a little wet, but fortunately they do not smudge unless you really rub over the print. So be careful when handling the riso prints. If the print does show smudges, you can remove the riso ink with an eraser.
