Wilkintie Letterpress Prints

Hello and welcome to a new week on decor8! I hope that each of you had a very nice and restful weekend, did you? I had plans to attend a rug design show (I know it doesn't sound too exciting does it?) but I ended up staying home and organizing and thorough cleaning my living room, going through stacks of magazines, and writing, writing, writing course materials for my e-class which kicks off today for the next 7 weeks! And what about you, what do you have going on in your life currently? I like to catch up with you so feel free to share! And speaking of sharing...

Wilkintie is a lovely etsy shop that I just discovered and shared today with my Real Simple audience, you may want to visit there for the full scoop on this exciting design duo based in Australia. This is truly fantastic letterpress work in which Wilkintie collaborates with some of their favorite artists to turn their work into prints with those lovely, deep impressions known as letterpress. There's nothing like it in my opinion, it's tactile and truly gorgeous - everyone should own at least one letterpress print or some cards because they feel almost like a luxury item, like sheets with a high thread count, LOL. :)

The rabbit print is my favorite as feels very folk art inspired and I'm always eager to see modern interpretation of Finnish, Swedish, Russian, Czech and Polish folk art.

Happy Monday to you! I'll be posting more goodies to share and inspire us both soon so stay tuned!
