A small introduction to Risograph printing for those who are new to this fantastic process! The machine is very energy efficient and only uses soy-based inks, as well as being high speed and producing beautifully tactile results. We ❤️ the Riso!

2027 calendars are flying off the shelves at @wearebif - don’t miss out! by @hotpinkpress_

I’m heading down to Brighton this weekend for @wearebif ✨ There’s a whole weekend of talks, workshops and a market! I’ll be there both days, with calendars, cards, prints, badges and good vibes 💫 come say hi!

Pls enjoy this clip of me and @eleanorsykesillustrator calendar getting Riso printed in the studio 😘 get one while we still have them! #brightonillustrationfestival #risograph #illustration by @hotpinkpress_

This is something I get asked a lot, and ask myself a lot! Here are a couple of things I’d do differently if I started my business all over again:

1. Take my time off seriously. It’s so easy to put everything into your small business, especially at the start. I did this and got super burnt out! Now I am wayyy stricter about taking proper time off.

2. Waiting longer for the right studio to come along! I moved my entire Risograph studio twice in one year, which was expensive and stressful. I’ve been in my studio for two years now 🫶

3. Getting an accountant sooner. Yes, it costs money, but the peace of mind I get is priceless 🤠

What would you do differently if you started your business again? #smallbusiness #glasgow #risograph by @hotpinkpress_

After a sell out first print run, @hotpinkpress_ and I have been printing more of our collaborative 2027 Calendars.

Each calendar is illustrated, Riso printed, assembled and bound with love and this time when they’re gone, they’re gone!

Grab one whilst you can on either of our websites, or catch us next weekend at @wearebif to buy one in person! ✏️ by @hotpinkpress_

I LOVE OTTERS 🦦 been working on some new cards (otter themed ofc)! Here are some of the sketches from them! Which otter is your favourite (pls help me choose one for a card!)

I’ve been wanting to draw some otters since I saw some in Mull in July. A magical experience!

Me and @eleanorsykesillustrator have been working hard not only illustrating our 2027 calendar, but also Riso printing and hand binding every single one ❤️

These calendars are printed on thick 250gsm 100% recycled paper, meaning once the year is up you can trim off the edges and have these as a collection of prints!

These are available to buy now, through either of our websites or catch us at a winter market near you! ❤️
