London Love

July 11, 2012 // kristen // 1 replies

With the London Olympics coming up in just a few weeks, I can only imagine how energized the atmosphere in the city must be right now. And, as an unabashed anglophile, I would be remiss if I didn’t do a little celebrating in the name of this wonderful city. So, I’ve combined my love of all things British with my love of paper and put together a little collection of paper goods that spread the “London Love”. Hope you enjoy!

1Canoe2 Letterpress Coasters and Prints

1Canoe2 Things that are Round Letterpress Print

Squee! The new “Things that are Round” letterpress coasters and letterpress posters from 1Canoe2 are so completely, fantastically clever that I couldn’t help but squee. I’m totally craving pie lately, so that’s where I honed in first but, honestly, every round little item is brilliant. Donuts, dandelions, tomato pin cushions, soda can tops, the world — so much fun! The set of coasters would make an excellent hostess gift, and the poster would be great to hang in the kitchen, the office, pretty much anywhere. Many thanks to Beth for the heads up on these!

P.S. The coasters come in a totally cute, letterpressed drawstring bag, too!
