I took a letterpress workshop when I was in school, and I remember thinking, "Damn, I need to hit the gym! Who would have thought it takes so much brute strength to make a 3-color 5x7 print on a letterpress?" Needless to say, I've left the letterpressing to the professionals. With having that said, I've always been a bit curious about
Soolip, a paperie boutique in West Hollywood run by Wanda Wen that has evolved to include a floral shop (
Floracopia), an annual wedding exhibition (
A Soolip Wedding--including the socially aware
Green Wedding!), and finally: a home furnishings boutique called
Soolip Bungalow.
Soolip Bungalow is described as "lifestyle" boutique: dinnerware, tabletop accessories, French soaps and bath products, candles, and unique throws and scarves to lounge in. It's a wee bit like a heavily edited Anthropologie home section...But with a heftier price tag plus more unique and obscure offerings that range from New York, Paris, Japan, London, and of course, Los Angeles.

You can find the blue dishes with white blossoms at Cost Plus, and Japanese home stores. I bought the cups.
