Abstract

See full text

A novelty button illumination device comprises a circular disk body having a circumferential rim. A recess is provided in the rim that holds in place one or more glow sticks. The illumination device engages a novelty button by either the novelty button's pre-existing pin-and-clutch fastening device or by a fastening device affixed to the illumination device. When engaged, the device together with the novelty pin may be worn on clothing and the like. The glow sticks are bent and snapped to activate a chemical light producing reaction and after such activation may be placed into the recess. Thereafter, during the time the glow sticks continue to glow, the novelty pin is illuminated by the glow sticks in the circumferential rim, enhancing the user's enjoyment in using the novelty pin illuminating device.
