If you haven't heard of Letterpress stationery, do not fear, as you are not alone. It’s an incredibly beautiful printing technique you can use when creating wedding or event stationery and instead of us explaining exactly what it is, where it came from and how you can use it in your stationery, we have brought in the experts from D&D Letterpress. In this episode, Danika and Doug from D&D Letterpress explain the process of letterpress printing, its history, and how it differs from other printing methods. They also share insights into the cost of letterpress printing, the types of paper used, and the various wedding and event stationery items that can be created with letterpress. We are thrilled to have D&D Letterpress on Cut The Cake so here is Danika and Doug. About D&D Letterpress. Danika and Doug are the founders of D&D Letterpress, a letterpress printing company specializing in high-quality wedding invitations and stationery. D&D Letterpress began with the rescue of a 1920’s Chandler and Price hand-fed and foot treadled printing press, ‘Wendy’, from an old hospital that was about to be demolished. Really it began before that, with Doug & Danika meeting and falling in love while studying design at university. When they combined their expertise in design, their passion for the hand-crafted and this beautiful, ninety year old hunk of cast iron, D&D Letterpress was born and grew with more cast iron presses along the way. Over the years D&D Letterpress has established itself as one of Australia’s leading letterpress studios. They pride themselves on quality and have gained a name for their attention to detail, knowledge and expertise on the letterpress process, working with amazing brands and designers around Australia (and beyond).
