About

Design and print a custom letterhead using metal type! This is the ideal workshop for stationery addicts or for anyone looking for a unique and thoughtful Christmas gift for a friend or loved one.

In this 2.5 hour workshop, you will learn the basics of typesetting, and will receive expert tuition to set a short letterhead in metal type, choosing from a range of attractive typefaces to create an elegant and distinctive effect. You will have the opportunity to proof and print your letterhead on a range of premium papers. Every participant will go away with 10 sheets of beautiful headed paper and matching envelopes. You will be offered the opportunity to order additional copies for a small fee or explore our membership options to print more copies yourself.

£50. All materials, including premium papers, are included in the workshop cost, and no prior experience is necessary.
