A short while ago, I blogged about a personal DIY letterpress machine from Lifestyle Crafts. After that post, I started noticing more things about the art of letterpress and soon made this post titled the Story of a Letterpress, which highlighted a letterpress renovation journey and a video showing a letterpress in action.

Today, I found this article from Design Sponge on a behind-the-scenes look of how SIMPLESONG designs and prints her letterpress products. Head on over there to check out SIMPLESONG’s post and images of her printing process.

After I did the post on the DIY Letterpress Machine from Lifestyle Crafts here the other day, I came across this blog post by Emily Ley Paper on her journey to find and restore a real letterpress machine. Reading it and watching this video showing a letterpress machine in motion definitely gave me a better appreciation for the work that goes into making real letterpress art.
