I have a very exciting news to share… my letterpress work and my studio has been featured in this new Japanese book called “LETTERPRESS ~Select Designs from San Francisco and New York” — if you are in Japan, it’s going to come out this week on August 14th!!! ((If you are in outside of Japan, you should be able to pre-order from Amazon.com or it’ll be available at your nearest Kinokuniya or any Japanese book stores in 6 months or so, I heard))
I think I’m getting a copy soon, I will share some of the pages when it comes! The author, Miki-san is an amazing writer & person, I enjoyed meeting with her and showed her my work and my (new) space. She also took a lot of photos for the book, I can’t wait to see and read everything! She is covering a lot of amazing letterpress studios in SF and NY, I can’t even tell you how honored I am to be a part!!! Thank you so much!!!

Lovely Jen from Made by Girl told me about that my Live What You Love letterpress print has been in the Elle Decor UK magazine April issue a while ago and also, my friend Susan mentioned the same thing to me… but when I went to a bookstore to see it in my eye, the new issue was already out and so I thought I totally missed it…
and Jen just sent me the page — she found in her hard drive! Yes, it’s my print in this sleek kitchen! Yay!
(Click the image to see larger)
Thank you so much, Jen!! xo
p.s Does anyone out there have this April issue that you are done with and that I can have?? That would be awesome if you do! Let me know.

A while ago, I had a little visitor from Japan, Yoko from Megro Press. It was so very nice to meet her as she is starting a letterpress business in Japan and be able to talk to her about letterpress and what made us go into letterpress etc. at my letterpress studio I’m renting. And now she is back in Tokyo, she put together a report from the visit both in English and Japanese so please visit her blog here and read about my studio… :)
Her blog also covers cool designs and letterpress things in Japan, you should check it out :)
Thank you so much, Yoko-san, it was so lovely to meet you!
