Guilty Pleasure - Letterpress

Letterpress printing is relief printing of text and image using a press with a "type-high bed" printing press and movable type, in which a reversed, raised surface is inked and then pressed into a sheet of paper to obtain a positive right-reading image.

While I have always been a huge fan of this art, typography, and paper products in general -- my love has blossomed into full fledged obsession since getting enagaged!

Specifically, letterpressed coasters... BEAUTIFUL! what a great, cute idea.

Here are some of my favorites!

Guilty Pleasure - stationary and stamps.

If there is one thing i love (that's not man or puppy), it's hand written letters, rubber stamps, and great stationary. There's something so unbelievably perfect when you receive a letter and all those personal touches are present.

There are some major reasons why I love stationary and stamps:
-- i enjoy my name, monograms, and any other celebration of self
-- DIY is something i really appreciate
-- time and care came into the package/letter
-- it's not cookie cutter, just one of a kind!
