Personalized stationery letterpress-printed while you wait, for just $29.00. Can you believe it? It’s true! Select Saturdays, Lunalux shoppers can go home with hot-off-the-press customized paper goods. Each Stationery Saturday, we print a unique design, utilizing a selection from our collection of antique lead and wood type. Some weeks we print from delicate monogram sorts, other times with weathered wood type. It might be stationery sheets, or folded cards or flat notes, and the styles vary from traditional to modern. The paper is cut, the press is ready to go, you just pick the letters and watch us work it Gutenberg-style. You’re welcome to look over our shoulder as we work, and we’ll de-mystify letterpress printing step-by-step. Or leave us to do the heavy lifting while you browse in our studio shoppe. We also offer complimentary coffee and a homemade cookies for guests to enjoy whilst shopping. Your personalized stationery is ready before you know it! If the wait is too long, or you have Places To Go, you can place your order and make plans to pick it up on a later date.
May 5, 2012 – This month’s Stationery Saturday designs were created with Moms in mind. After all, Mother’s Day is just a week away! We started with luxurious 100% cotton monarch notecards (only the best for mom), and imprinted them with icons from our collection of lead dingbats. The orange flower, red apple and teal medallion are each available on pearl white or florescent white 3.75×7.25-inch flats, and will be paired with colorful open-end envelopes. You also get your choice of script or roman lettering. We’ll print the text of your choice in pale gray ink. Your personalized set will be bundled with baker’s twine and a letterpress-printed Lunalux tag. A perfect gift for all the maternal figures in your life!
