HAPPY HANDMADE HOLIDAYS!

A sneak peak of my boxes before shipment!

Only 2 more days left to shop in my etsy store...

the shop will close December 16, 2009 and reopen on January 5, 2010.

I just finished up the last of my binding that needed to be done today.

Oh - I had to include a picture of this! The right side is my hand carved trike.

I just got this awesome stamp set (on the left)

the other day! It's so cool. It came with tons of little itsy bitsy numbers and letters...

and yes - I handset all of my type into that round plastic holder.

It was great - just like letterpress....setting 10 pt. type.

And, since I haven't set type in forever...it sure made me miss the 'ole letterpress shop!

Someday soon I hope to be printing again....

Here's a close-up....so small...

I lost an "r" somewhere along the line and I'm still looking for it.....

Anyhow - the finished results!

I handstamp the trike and then the round lettering!

No computers here!

I do as much as I can without the computer....

I just love the look of the handmade element in work.

Okay...more later.
