Custom made alphabet stamp set

My set of letters

I don’t know if anyone (except the four that commented) was interested in How to custom make a unmounted letter set but I personally love the photos, so here are some more! Hehe. This is the finished set, though I need to start using it too.

Unmounted I had a look into the giftwrapping shelf and instantly found what I was looking for; a box for my mounted letter stamps! A light-weight paper box that is sturdy, shallow and small enough for all the letters to be viewable but not spread around too much. It’s a Dior perfume gift box, and I love how great it looks filled with these stamps! Perfect!

They kind of look like tiny radios in a shop window to me. Little pink radio heads with letters on three sides, piled up and ready to deliver a message into the world.

I look (and feel) like a total dork with tape between my eyes as my broken glasses only held together for two days after my visit to the optician. It will be another week until I get new ones, but if I need to go somewhere I have old lenses that I can use. I’m reading so many great posts online (and very personal ones – thanks for sharing, those I’ve commented on knows what I’ve read this week) that I wish I could produce today too, but I don’t have the energy or inclination right now.

What was it again that I was supposed to do when life gave me lemons? I totally forget all the time…

  1. Ah, someone else who forgets all the time what the next idea/project is…. I am not alone.

    This is wonderful Hanna, it’s so time consuming but well worth the doing. I like how you’ve even put an ink-pad in with the stamps so that there’s no need to hunt one down….

    I hope your glasses get sorted soon, I know how annoying that can be when they break. I’ve always kept my old pair as a spare, just in case.

  2. Vilket jobb! Beundrar ditt t?lamod med “pillet” ;-) Fin bilder ocks?.

    Du Hanna, nu vet jag att det ?r snart ?r hundra ?r sen du vann tavlan hos mig. T?nkte att jag kanske skall se till och l?gga den p? posten ?t dig.. f?r jag vet inte n?r jag hinner ta mig iv?g till andra sidan stan nu ;-)

    Kan du maila din adress igen… f?r jag hittar den inte bland min mail nu.
