Portland Button Works or Spiral House: The New Choose Your Own Adventure Website!
What do you get a business for its 14th birthday? A new website, Apparently!
We’ve spent the last few months rebuilding the Portland Button Works and Spiral House Shop website and we are so excited to share it with you!
We have noticed over the years that customers were either here for custom items, or our catalog items, and rarely both. So, the goal was simple: make it easier and more efficient for people to order custom items at Portland Button Works AND make it easier to find and order from our Spiral House Catalog of pre-made buttons, zines, books and other neat stuff lurking around the shop.
The new site is officially live!
When you arrive at the new site, you’ll be invited to choose your own adventure:
Portland Button Works: (The Custom Shop): These are the buttons, magnets, mirrors, and bottle opener keychains we have always made, but better, and now with an onsite designer, uploader, and a way to store your artwork on our main website!
Spiral House Catalog: This is our curated book shop and zine distro. Browse our "ready-to-ship" designs for pinback buttons, along with our ever-growing collection of books, zines and magical things.
RIP Design-O-Matic (Hello, Onsite Designer)
We are officially retiring the old Design-O-Matic. You no longer need to go to a separate site to build your buttons! Every custom product listing now features our integrated onsite designer where you can upload images (multiple!), add text, move layers, and save to your account with us. For those that prefer to use our design templates, they will still be available.
A Note for Returning Customers: If you had artwork stored in the old Design-O-Matic that you need for a reorder, please get in touch with us via our contact form. We can help you retrieve your files so you can move them over to the new system.
New Items for our shelves and yours!
Once the dust has settled from the site rebuild we are going to be adding loads of new things and restocking all your favorites. We have also added a sale section and will be offering some grab bags soon too! Also, like something but it’s not in stock? You can now schedule to get an email when an item is back in stock!
In the meantime, come say hello and see what's new in the shop on the Spiral House instagram or check out the videos we have added of our button presses running on the Portland Button Works instagram. Don’t forget that if you are in Portland you can schedule a time to browse our shop in real life here.
We can’t wait to see what you create with the new tools!
Oh ya, you can also use coupon code: BIRTHDAY14 for 14% off until the end of the month!
