Just came back from the County Clerk’s office… Heartfish Press is officially registered and I have the certified copy right here with me! aww I am super excited! Now, I have a month to prepare for the 1.11.11 launch… oh god. No holiday break for me for sure.
Wish me luck!! :)
I have a very exciting news to share today… I am so proud to announce that my studio is taking letterpress love to the next level — I am launching Heartfish Press on January 11, 2011! That is in 2 months, I picked today to announce because it’s 11.11.10 and one more number 1, it’s the launch day :)
This has been in the works for seems like ever… but I am super excited to finally make this official. The new website will have an online shop, custom gallery with all the letterpress work I’ve done for the last 2 years (including some work that I haven’t shared with you here) and much more. And this blog, Heartfish will stay the same here, maybe a new fresh design, but I’ll see you everyday as usual! :)
I couldn’t thank everyone who’s been a big support enough!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! and please stay tuned for 1.11.11 :) xoxo Hijiri
