LA printer's fair

last weekend was pretty eventful for us uneventful
(and we like it that way) folks.
First, on Saturday was L.A. Printer's Fair
at the International Print Museum in Carson.
It was our first time visiting there, so we were super
excited.
an impressive display of presses by Jim Salazar.

Linotype demonstration. They had many more demos
using just a few of their huge collection of presses.
A youtube video of some of them here.
It was nice to see the familiar faces,
even
though we didn't really have the time to catch up
with everyone...

Tiselle's Tianyi on the left and her crew.

Mable of Dee & Lala

Tina of Joie Studio.
And then we also saw some super cool new-to-us stuff.
I love the super fun & bright hand printed
cards by Jill K.
And the table across from us were these gorgeous,
hand-bound journals.....and beautiful stitched & drawn
art work by Michelle Moode.


And at night, Ken had a music gig with his band at
the Food and Wine festival. I was so exhausted by the time
I got there, but still managed to enjoy some fancy food
and beverages. Definitely could stay there all night if
I didn't have another fair the next morning...
