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.


instagr.am { the month of april }

Oh April, April, wherefore art thou, April? Gone, I see.

We may be crazy-busy, but life marches on. Here are some snatches of our spring.

{ Why take just a bike ride when you could take a PIRATE bike ride? Yarrr. }

{ Printing. Printing. Printing. Pretty much all we do nowadays, it seems. }

{ Pressure washing a polypropylene rug is like pure magic. Now you see the algae… now you don’t. }

{ If we have a spare moment, we play bocce ball with the kids in the early evening. }

{ It can be hotly contested at times. }

{ Testing out our stationery show booth colors for this year. Do you see… ombré? }

{ When you’re hungry, you’re hungry. Even if it means eating a cold pancake. }

{ What? No sand in the sandbox yet? Who cares!! }

{ Lots of growing things. }

{ Candyland Victory!! }

{ At the risk of being redundant: strawberries. Grown two blocks from our house. Sigh. I love Spring. }

May 16, 2012 - 3:43 pm Tina Dahl - I love the fact Cam is in the sandbox with his costume on...makes me smile as our 6 year old son STILL likes to dress up in various costumes (Indiana Jones and Pirate) for no reason whatsover and run around outside! Happy Spring!
