20 Reasons to Write a letter

We teamed up with Egg Press beginning April 1st for a 30 day challenge in honor of National Letter Writing Month. Everyone at Hello!Lucky and Egg Press vouched to take part in the challenge to write 30 letters in 30 days, as well as anyone else who wanted to join. We offered free starter kits containing 4 limited edition letterpress cards to anyone who signed up here. We are so amazed and thrilled by the outcome of this campaign. We have seen an overwhelming amount of participants and love the live updates on instagram and twitter. The letter writing movement is WRITE_ON target!

Write_on with Hello!lucky & Egg Press

This April we are spreading the word, quite literally. We have teamed up with our pals at Egg Press to encourage the art of writing (conveniently coinciding with National Letter Writing Month)! The goal is to write 30 letters in 30 days to 30 people who have in some way touched our lives. Here’s the best part, we will supply you and your friends with FREEWRITE_ON starter kits, equipped with 4 limited edition letterpress cards designed by Hello!Lucky & Egg Press. Each card sports a back-stamp to guide your recipient to THEIR free kit. Each of us will be sharing our experiences on Instagram & twitter, and we would love for you to join us. We will be hand selecting instagram posts throughout the month of April to be featured here on our blog (#WRITE_ON). Get your free kit here!

National Stationery Show: Our favorites!

We saw a ton of inspiring work at this past National Stationery Show, including these cheeky postcards (above) from La Familia Green. We were also pretty smitten with these adorable pencil cases and tea towels from Pie Bird Press:

Our neighbors at Egg Press wowed us with their bold colors and quirky illustrations:

Suzy Jack had these fun pencil cups:

And first time exhibitor Fig. 2 wowed us with these neon cards:

National Stationery Show: Our friends & neighbors

At this years National Stationery Show, we were honored and excited to participate in a booth community with three of our favorite designers - Egg Press, Hammerpress and EIEIO. Besides the camaraderie, treats and gossip, their work was incredibly inspiring! We especially loved the bus thank you card (above), gift wrap and calender (below) from Egg Press.

Fellow letterpress printers Hammerpress had some fantastic new journals, calenders and cards:

EIEIO had some great new wrapping paper, but unfortunately, we don't have any photos! Check it out here.
