NSS: ONE CANOE TWO
As promised this week, I will be sharing photos from select vendors from the National Stationery Show.
One the last day, we stumbled upon the One Canoe Two Letterpress booth. We met one of the founders - Beth Snyder - and chatted about the letterpress in the barn and their design process. The style - the lettering the geometric patterns- is elegantly casual. I especially love the Pieces and Patterns calendar, which is definitely a work of art ready to be framed.
The 100% original illustrated and letterpressed designs are printed on a big, old 10x15 C&P in a big red barn in sunny Mid-Missouri, USA. The designs are drawn or painted by hand, which sets them apart from other letterpress studios. The shop name comes from the founders' years of dreaming up big ideas around a campfire and floating down a spring-fed Missouri river in a canoe.
