Good morning! Hope you had a nice weekend… oh my god, New York City is already filled with holiday stuff, it’s crazy! And thanksgiving is already right here this week… eek soo fast!

Just wanted to let you know that I listed some more letterpress goodies to my etsy shop… yes, it’s for the holidays! :)

If you are planning to gift some papergoods, books, magazines, prints etc. to your loved ones this holiday, I printed something perfect and easy — paper bags to do the wrapping!

Yes, I used wood types to make it really special :)

Type setting — started with same spacing. I LOVE white on kraft paper so I used white ink.

and realized that the letter A and Y for the “holidays” can be tighter…

so adjust the spacing…

better!

and here are the final products…

Happy Holidays! Kraft Paper Bag (set of 5):

Now, the second one… “JOY” — I think it’s one of my favorite holiday words!

Again, started with same spacing and realized that the letter O and Y can be tighter…

Adjust the spacing…

Better!

Printing away…

and here they are. JOY Kraft Paper Bag (set of 5):

*I will have some kind of holiday offer to my blog readers this week so stay tuned!!
