Letterpress Coasters - Round 1 of printing

So I haven't been doing much printing lately. Frankly there's been a lot of personal issues. But today was back to the press, and with some great results.

My friend Carrie had gotten a bunch of coasters, and she gave me some to try out. I finally decided to make the coasters a gift for a friend and a vintage-y bird motif as one of Joie's inaugural etsy items.

Today I did three different colors on the press! These are just the first run of each coaster - none are complete, but I thought I would give you a sneak preview:



If you want to see more, I've put the pics up on my flickr page. Enjoy!
