Sweet Olive Press
christmas letterpress

There's nothing like letterpress.

With that unmistakable impression, a texture you can feel and see,
it stands alone among printing processes.

In the tradition of artisan letterpress printers the world over, I work in my small seaside studio
using magnesium plates, hand-mixed inks and rich cotton stock on a 108-year-old
cast iron letterpress that weighs 1000 pounds (really).

Letterpress is a labor of love, an art to be passionate about, a return to hand-crafted
beauty in a mass-produced world. Come in and browse the Sweet Olive Press collection
of luxurious letterpress stationery, announcements, cards, invitations
and limited edition art prints. Welcome...

{Summer 2010 : the Sweet Olive Press studios will be closed during
August and September – I'll be in Australia for family, rest and inspiration!}
