clay + calligraphy.
2 of my favorite “pastimes” rolled into one. i have always been extremely passionate about handwriting. growing up, i wanted “hand writing” to be my job. i even once hand wrote my résumé for a graphic design firm and was later told that THAT was one of the reasons i landed the job. now that i am lucky enough to create my own jobs, i’ve hired my own hand to collaborate with my clay. so you see, dream jobs can come true . . . stay tuned for my new line of calligraphy on clay.

today was my first day of calligraphy class. though i’ve done “regular” calligraphy before, now i’m learning how to do the beautiful fancier calligraphy with a teeny tiny pointed nib. it is incredibly enjoyable to spend a few hours simply writing the alphabet over and over and over. it’s like i’m in first grade again . . . but so much wiser (and wearing nicer shoes).

linea carta.
to me, there is nothing more beautiful than interesting handwriting. diva, of linea carta, has a hand for calligraphy so divine that it makes me drool. we hired her to write our wedding place cards for our guests. i think it will be such a treat. and not only does she do custom lettering, she has a lovely line of cards, tags, and notebooks. check her out right here.
