Printing by Hand: A Modern Guide to Printing with Handmade Stamps, Stencils, and Silk Screens Cover

Staff Pick

Textile designer Lena Corwin has mastered the "so cute it makes you want to squeal" aesthetic, and thanks to the detailed instructions and full-color, step-by-step photographs in her debut book, Printing by Hand, you can too. This helpful guide covers the basics of printing, as well as the nuts and bolts of the author's three favorite methods: stamping, stenciling, and screen printing.

Note: Fans of Corwin's style might also enjoy Lotta Prints by self-taught Scandinavian designer Lotta Jansdotter.
