About Ellis

I'm a stay-at-home mom to two beautiful kiddos, and I love to dabble in design while the little ones are sleeping!

Thank you for taking the time to help me out! I posted again in the forum that i managed to delete the entry somehow.. Since i agree it needed some rework that will take a liittle time - and i have a crazy week ahead, i will resubmit it when/ if i get the time. But thanks so much for the help!

Thanks, Meg! I've taken one class up in San Francisco a couple of years ago, and it was pure awesome. I have to get up there to take more soon. I appreciate your help! :)

hi Jill! Love your work! I got started in letterpress by taking a few courses. I'm sure you will be able to find a workshop in your area. Once I felt a little more educated, I looked on briarpress.org to find a press. Briarpress is the biggest and probably best online resource for letterpress. I print on a Chandler and Price Platen press, but there are lots of options. Things to consider are: studio space, what kinds of things are you printing, transporting the press, budget etc. You can email me at hellomoglea@gmail.com if you have more questions! xx-meg
