New Letterpress Map Prints

October 28, 2014 By Jennifer Luna 2 Comments

Coming to the shop this week are three new prints we’re super duper excited about!! They are letterpress maps of Manhattan, Los Angeles, and Seattle.

Each print has been carefully researched, designed and then letterpressed by hand with black ink on beautiful thick white paper by our friend, and fellow Pacific Northwesterner Archie Archibald of Archie’s Press. (Note – the Seattle print also comes in blue ink and red ink!)

Manhattan holds a special place in my heart as I spent over a month there one summer working for Scarlett Johansson as her assistant, and it is one I will never forget! And Los Angeles… well, I lived the majority of my adult life there and it will always be my second home. (And I think I lived in about 20 of the circles on this map!)

And I just love this video of Archie’s and his process. So much love and energy go into letterpress. Enjoy!

P.S. He makes these maps of tons of other cities! If there is one you’re looking for, let me know and we can see if it’s available.

Cute Weekly Desk Pads From Rifle Paper Co.

September 23, 2014 By Jennifer Luna Leave a Comment

One of our most popular and favorite designers is Anna Bond of Rifle Paper Co. All of her designs are beautiful, feminine, unique, and made in the USA.

Her weekly desk pad series are a personal favorite. They work as a weekly to-do list and/or calendar. They work as a mousepad. They work simply as eye-candy to make your desk or office pretty and pop with color.

Any of these weekly desk pads make a great gift for a hostess, house warming party, graduation, new job, or just because! Click here to view all weekly desk pad styles on our website (and scroll down this page for all the Rifle Paper Co. weekly desk pads we carry.)

The 2015 Simplified Planner

I can’t tell you how excited we are to carry the 2015 Simplified Planner by Emily Ley in our shop this year. We saw them last year sell out like hot cakes! While you can currently pick up your Simplified Planner today in our shop (3 different designs!), if you want to purchase online, you’ll need to wait until September 3rd!

We met Emily at the National Stationery Show this year in New York and she was just as delightful in person as she has been on social media and email. You can just tell she put her entire heart and soul into the 2015 Simplified Planner and genuinely loves what she does.

The 2015 Simplified Planner was designed to help you put what matters most first in your life, whatever that may be. It has a place to name your 2015 Bucket List, remember a happy memory from the week, meal plan, and more. I personally love all the inspirational quotes throughout.

Here’s a look inside the planner:
