new project! {hand-printed napkins}



in preparation for ICE next saturday, i have been developing some new ideas, and i am so, so excited to share this project with you: my new line of hand-printed napkins!



each set is printed by hand from hand-carved linoleum blocks. the colors are custom mixed as well, and the napkins are 100% cotton.

i am quite pleased with how they are turning out so far and will have more sets to show you in the coming days.

you'll be able to buy them at ICE, as well as in my etsy shop.


and now i want to print everything in my house. i'm thinking: pillows, duvet cover, tea towels......
and how can i get my gocco printer in on the action? there are experiments to be had...

happy wednesday!

Jess, these are GREAT! I love them. I've always wanted to gocco napkins and tea towels but I'm kind of chicken. (plus I'd need special ink and the stamp kit)

Krissy, you totally should!! I printed on fabric with my gocco printer using regular old screen printing ink and it worked just great. No special ink needed! It's fun to experiment. :)
