From Homeschool Project to Trusted Industry Leader

In 1994, what started as a simple homeschooling project for the Christopherson family quickly became something much bigger. Linda and Tom Christopherson discovered a passion for creating custom buttons—and a knack for doing it faster and better than anyone else.

As one of the first button companies to launch a website, Affordable Buttons pioneered online ordering in the industry. That entrepreneurial spirit, combined with an unwavering commitment to quality and customer service, helped the company grow from a home-based operation to one of the nation's premier button manufacturers.

Over three decades later, we're still family-owned and operated, still based in Minnesota, and still dedicated to the same values that built this company: quality products, lightning-fast turnaround, and treating every customer like family.

"We really try hard to always say yes and figure out how to get it done."
— Linda Christopherson, Founder
