Making Their Mark

Making Their Mark
 

Dearest readers,

Two artists have come to our attention.  These artists are beautiful traditionalists in the sense of sentiments. The art of composing letters and taking the time to scribe a card is a timeless, thoughtful tradition. Karis and Sarah are making their mark.  Using their table top press in their garage they create stationary, wedding invitations, postcards, envelopes...hand pressed paper art for caring correspondence. TabletopMade's stationary is found on Etsy and our very own stores, Plum Goods and Supply Room.

Receiving a hand written card is visual, tactile, and sweet. These treasures, saved in boxes for review and revisit, deserve our time.

As always readers,

Love,
Mikana
