sustainable saturday {the best of letterpress]

There are really an amazing number of letterpress studios that use eco-friendly production practices, making it much easier to throw parties in eco chic fashion. I thought I would share just a few of my favorite eco-friendly and whimsical options. I just love the detail of the work from ink+wit...

..the creative motifs from pancakes&franks...

...the classic work of bella figura...

...and the perfectly simple designs from egg press:

Do you have a favorite eco friendly letterpress company?

I like Parrott Design Studio. She uses post consumer waste as far as I remember and has some really good designs :)

They are all georgous, but I particularly like the second one down (the pink by ink+wit) and the orange one (one from bottom). Thanks for taking the time to share.

P.S. There are some companies which make stationary/cards/etc. out of recycled paper and they put flower seeds in the paper! So after someone reads your letter/card, they can just soak it in water and plant it! So cool! =)

Gorgeous stationery!
The grapes would be perfect for a wine tasting party!

I don't have a fave eco-friendly company... in the past I have relied on Crane's for stationery but I will have to think about more eco-chic options like these!
