Aikido Colored Belts Pinback Buttons
This button says "Aikido" in Japanese Kanji. The literal translation means, "The way of harmony with the energy of the Universe." The actual translation is that it is a martial art, started in Japan by a man named Morihei Ueshiba who is called O Sensei (translates to Great Teacher") by followers of this beautiful Japanese martial art.
Choose the colored aikido belt that matches your latest promotion! We have red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and brown belt illustrations for these colored belt promotion pinback buttons. Not every dojo uses all of the colors, and not every dojo uses any colors at all. We tried to cover all the colors that are offered in the children's aikido classes at our home dojo, since some children like to get a new button when they test for their new belts. These make a very nice keepsake to put on a backpack or bookbag since you worked so hard to earn that new colored belt and want the world to know!
We have this illustration available on our necklaces as well, so if you would like a necklace to match, be sure to check those out!
Are these handmade? These buttons, keychains, and hair accessories are handmade by our family: Sarah, John, Madison, and Malia. We design and create jewelry and other items as we travel around the world on our sailboat. You can read more about our adventures on our blog
How are they Made? We design different drawings or use decorative Japanese papers. These papers are precision cut to fit into a button press. They are paired with metal button parts and a protective mylar cover and pressed in a professional button machine. The buttons are 1.5 inches across.
