Everyday Skills· Merchandise· Video· Worksheets

Many people come to TPK looking to improve their handwriting, and until today, I wasn’t really able to help them. Yes, there are beaucoup calligraphy resources here — but calligraphy is art! It’s not something that’s realistic to use for everyday tasks like writing thank you cards, notes, or recipes. That’s why I’ve spent the last few months creating Improve Your Handwriting: A Comprehensive Online Course! The course will teach you how to develop handwriting that you’re proud to show off. Here’s a short video to tell you more:

I have wanted to design and compile my own modern calligraphy starter kit for years. Finally, I decided I’ve seen enough of low-quality supplies or barebones kits that give you tools to create calligraphy but minimal information! I resolved to create a kit that would truly teach calligraphy, like a mini-calligraphy workshop in a box. Today, I’m proud to announce that The TPK Modern Calligraphy Starter Kit is available and ready to ship to your door — for free (if you’re located in the US)!

Rediscovering Hand-Lettering: Why TPK’s Original Hand-Lettering Worksheet Set is Awesome

In February of 2015, I quietly added a worksheet to the TPK catalog called “Learn Hand-Lettering for a Latte” (a.k.a. “Premium Hand-Lettering Worksheet Set“). At that point, I was too timid to blog about catalog additions, so I mentioned it in passing in a random blog post! By some miracle, though, people have noticed the worksheet throughout the years. And, by the looks of it (16 five-star reviews!), learners genuinely love the LHFaL Worksheet! So, today, I’m doing what I should have done four years ago and telling you why TPK’s most popular hand-lettering worksheet set is so cool.

A Farewell to Roses (The Illustrated Roses Template, That Is)

My goal this spring is to conduct a digital cleanse of the TPK website. To me, the website feels like a super fun room with all sorts of things to look at! Kind of like Ariel’s cave in The Little Mermaid: so many treasures to behold. I, however, have been a bit more sloppy about categorizing those treasures than Ariel was. So, I’m putting on my metaphorical cleaning gloves and taking action! The digital spring cleaning also means a gentle retirement of some items from the TPK catalog, including the Illustrated Roses Template.

Pre-baby, I loved going to Tampa, Florida, in the winters to teach calligraphy workshops at The Paper Seahorse. The Paper Seahorse is a magical shop in a lovely converted craftsman home! The brainchild of my supremely creative friend Tona Bell, it’s filled to the brim with wonders, including Flow Magazine, Palomino pencils, and vintage typewriters. An eclectic assortment of light fixtures, artwork, and window dressings complement the merchandise!

The Most Amazing Calendar of 2015

I’ll sum up this blog post succinctly: Inkstruck Studio and I collaborated to create a calendar, and it is awesome. The purpose of this post is not for me to go into slimy salesman mode, though. The real reason I am writing it is I want to give my mom a break from receiving {numerous} photos of the calendar over iMessage; photos that, as a mom, she is obligated to respond to with: “Wow, honey, that’s so great!” I love talking about this thing, and I don’t feel so bad talking to you about it because I figure you can leave this blog post at any point; you’re not a captive audience like my mom!
