hello there.

Well, whaddya wanna know?  Here's the plain and simple truth:  My name is Rebekah Tennis and I love design.  I love paper, the way it feels, its weight and texture.  I love extra special touches on little things: homemade tags on gift-wrap, old stamps on an envelope, and twine on nearly everything.

My husband, business partner and all-around solid rock Matt would probably tell you that he likes tools - lots of 'em, finding the perfect way to do something, taking things apart, and precision in everything. 

So you might as well have guessed by now... we are the perfect match for an old letterpress studio. Together we farm rice and have a small but adorable three-year old son, Cameron, and a chubby one year old, Lance.  This keeps us fairly busy, but whenever we have a spare moment, we crank up our 102 year old Chandler and Price platen press and pull some prints. 

There's more, oh yes, there IS more - but that's what this blog is for.  Take a look around, get to know us, our great town of Chico, California and our beautiful presses.


from the archives: a wedding suite.

I’m very behind on showing you how our custom work is going. Every once in a while I am able to grab my camera and shoot a few pictures of a custom job or two that we have done. It seems funny that after drawing the artwork, having it plated, printing, trimming and lovingly packaging it to send to a bride, I sometimes lack the energy to photograph and post it on the blog. It’s the last, easiest step in the process! Like show and tell! Well, here’s trying to do better.

Let’s start with one I photographed back in April. Remember this red and brown save the date? Well, here is the lovely wedding suite…

Although this was a June wedding, I think the chocolate and deep red give it a lovely rustic/fall feel. The scrolls are a bit vintagey, a bit elegant, a bit whimsical. And the stripe is a fun texture to add to an invite!

There you go. Check one off the list! Interested in a custom invite? Drop us a line.
