letterpress printing at the arm

my friends maggie and neal are getting married in october, and maggie's roommate kyo is doing their invitations. they rented some time on one of the presses at the arm in brooklyn and were sweet enough to let me come watch/help.

and oh, i was like a little kid in a candy store.... everywhere i turned there was a new drawer to open that was full of type, or some beautiful piece of equipment, or a fun poster on the wall.

we had fun printing the invites, and they look great! i'm so glad maggie & kyo let me tag along with them! next on my list of classes to take is definitely letterpress!
