Spied Alisha’s work from Palindrome Press on Brooklyn Bride and had to post… The work is so unlike most studios… and it’s totally amazing. Chelsea & Ben’s invite above is my favorite. See Palindrome Press’ Etsy shop here. Please also note that Alisha is offering a 15% discount on custom orders placed this month.

Rebecca of Moontree Press is over at the Design*Sponge guest blog talking about The Handmade Wedding for the next two weeks. She’s got two posts up already and both are chock full of fantastic and creative ideas. Be sure to keep reading all week. Please also be sure to check out her own blog which showcases the amazing letterpress work she does.

Melanie Carter from Lucky Paperie sent me a sweet email today to share her letterpress studio. Lovely work, great color sense and typography. I loved the variety of styles she shows. See the invitation portfolio here.

Hope you’re having a lovely Valentine’s Day… We’re totally buried in snow/sleet/hail/rain in New York. (Well, a few inches isn’t exactly buried but for a pedestrian city it’s pretty nightmarish. Says the girl who went to school in Buffalo. Yeah.)

Absolutely loved the work at Charming Gardener. Gorgeous typography and imagery. Loved all the letterpress work for occasions and identity. The attention to detail is exquisite.

Such pretty wedding invitations from One Blossom incorporating a wide variety of botanical motifs. Some very striking color combinations… also am loving how each piece of the package above fits into the overall theme without being too matchy-matchy.

I got my 2007 calendar from Ilee in the mail yesterday and let me tell you… I knew it was going to be gorgeous but it seriously exceeded my expectations. The papers are amazing as is the printing and color. The handpainted bits are so well done. In all it’s a wonderful piece. It’s still listed at the Etsy store so get yours before they run out.

Adored these new letterpressed notebooks from Dauphine Press‘ new(ish) online shop. The press is now carrying a wide variety of notecards, notebooks, gorgeous letterpressed favor boxes and custom stationery in addition to their wedding invitation business. Absolutely lovely stuff.

I have been checking back with Mr. Letter’s Press since the Stationery Show for a full website but was appeased recently when I found that they put up a PDF with some of thier catalog on their website. I remembered seeing the above cards at the show and thought I’d share them with you… They have a little easel on the back so they can be propped up and displayed. I really liked the headless snowman… somehow I found it amusing. The thick pillowy card with the deep letterpress impressions makes a snowman look all the more lovely. Other favorites include the Thank You postcards, Generic Postcard, and the We’ve Moved postcards. Such great and graphic work.

There are some lovely holiday card options available now at Port2Port’s Etsy Shop. As always, totally swoon-worthy. The limited edition calendar sold out already today, be quick and put your orders in for cards lest your favorites be gone soon too. (thanks Joy & Grace for the heads up.)

The work at Plume Press is absolutely outstanding. Love this aesthetic, lots of flourishes and ornamentation. The color combinations are quirky without being too weird. Beautiful work.

I am so completely floored by this letterpress shop. The above images are details of the prints but I had to show them this way so you’d really understand how gorgeously rendered these are. Athenaeum Press produces limited-edition prints by Peder Singleton. The work up for sale now is part of his Urban Typography Project and feature a 3-color process for printing representations of old signage located in Salt Lake City, Utah. Gorgeous color combinations. I can barely get over it. I’ll most more soon. P.S. Nirali Magazine relaunches today. Apologies for neglecting this lately. You’ll see why when you see Nirali.
