I am completely and utterly inspired by the work of Keegan Meegan. It’s been a short five months since I last visited the site, but man-oh-man is it chock-full of goodness! From hand-lettered packaging for handmade tattoo guns, to Save the Dates featuring an anchor design, to an amazingly beautiful letterpress birth announcement. What a talent, seriously. View the June post on Keegan Meegan.

This is a beautifully done Save the Date featuring calligraphy by May+Belle accompanied by a letterpress tag by Dependable Letterpress. The keys were sourced at a flea market in Paris. Simple and effective. Love it.

Knot Practical

Posted by Diane Faye Zerr on June 25, 2010 · 1 Comment 

Swayspace created this gorgeous and fun letterpress booklet/poster of knots. The New Camper’s Journal is a limited edition and only available at the Alite pop-up store at Eastern Mountain Sports in New York. I knew I should have escaped to New York when I had the chance, I’m missing out on all the cool swag. (Pouts in child-like fashion and stomps away) If you live in New York and send me one, I will be eternally grateful.

Keegan Meegan

I am truly intrigued by the prints and recent book by Keegan Wenkman. Keegan lives and works out of Portland, Cascadia and was recently featured on FPO. Keegan’s book Codex Viginti Sex focuses on the number 26. “The first book Codex Viginti Sex is based on the repetition and context of the number 26 in my life.” I know how you feel, the number 22 or 222 is always throwing itself into my life.

1 Canoe 2

Another store on Etsy that I just came to love. 1 Canoe 2 is a letterpress shop in Missouri and has some truly adorable prints available, and I especially love the state prints. But no Pennsylvania is available …

I just saw this new piece added to Katie Kirk’s shop. She collaborated with Studio on Fire for this print which is in celebration of EightHourDay’s 5 year anniversary. EightHourDay is the design studio belonging to Katie Kirk and husband, Nathan Strandberg. Purchase the print pictured above in their Etsy store.

Wild Ink Press

Wow! I love the studio (and the work) of Wild Ink Press. It’s way too organized for my taste (I can be messy at times) but it is gorgeously so!
