Lino printing bags at Furniture Magpie

Sam suggested that we customise her Furniture Magpie bags and I thought I'd give it a try.. The brief was using he words 'I'm a Magpie' and a retro typewriter font. Here is what happened!

Money saving handmade wedding ideas..

Here are just a few of the quick and easy money saving ideas that we made for our wedding, which we though added the personal touch..

Idea Number One:

Hand drawn chalk boards for signage and directions.. (buy them on ebay super cheap, otherwise, make your own and invest in some chalkboard paint, which you can slap on anything from tin cans, jam jar lids to old board or reclaimed wood!)

Idea Number Two:

An oak stamper made from the English Stamp Company using this design.. I then stamped the back of little kraft labels and encouraged guests to leave us a message on the back almost as a guest book.

Idea Number Three:

Also handwrite labels on vintage found decanters which we filled with port..

Idea Number Four:
Hand typed Orders of service, using the letterpress to stamp the cover with the oak motif and the words 'Order of Service'.
