They have so many different kinds of journals, cards and letter writing supplies. They even have a regular letter writing Meetup. What a great way to get unplugged in a digital world!

Its beautiful but the bottom of the keepsake box is stained with soy ink from the back so I had to paste art paper and add another layer of a lacy sheet as a minor cushion. Like my own baby book, I'm sure my favorite section will be his footprints/handprints. Pages document the date and time of birth + origin of the baby's name. There is a white ribbon bookmark. I'm planning to order a couple of sets of screen-printed blank cards to use as a birth announcement. My boyfriend was impressed with the colors and line work of the "love faraway" cards we bought. The sensibility is both sophisticated and whimsical. We like the use of spot varnish. I wish more of their designs were as elegant. If you're looking for something original or playful, I recommend this design studio/letterpress for its fun designs and thank you notes. I hope they come out with a children's book. The products are functional but with good typography. They also threw in a dozen flat tiny gift cards that have "love" in fuchsia script.

One of my best wedding finds throughout the entire process was Stephanie to do the calligraphy for…read moreour invitations, the place cards and a few other fun decor items. In a sea of craziness, Stephanie was the sweet, kind calm calligrapher who gave me exactly what we wanted with her modern and contemporary style. I truly lucked out with this Yelp find. She was amazing. But that wasn't all. She went above and beyond. A couple weeks before our wedding, we lost one of our labradors suddenly. Obviously our labs were important to us and Stephanie knew that since we had about 200 black and chocolate colored mini lab place cards that would be set up with a dog house and other related items. Each of our labs was also going to get their own card and be positioned near the dog house just for fun. Well, Stephanie took it upon herself to create lil gold wings for the lab we lost and did the same for another lab we lost earlier. Both were set up on a mini rainbow bridge. Fab calligraphy aside...she won me over with this act of kindness. xo

At the top, or behind the counter, sits a kind and benevolent guru named Guy, who is there for all my and your printing needs. He was patient with me when I forgot to put in printer's marks. When I went to pick up the proofs, he brought me behind the counter and into the printing room and his computer to show me why my particular design would have cropping issues. He patiently sent me back to the drawing board and happily emailed me to tell me when it was time to come back for attempt number two. The prints look great. I can't comment on the prices because the boss writes the checks not me, but Guy is great to work with. I know his phone calls will make me laugh and his prints will make me smile.

But, with some trade show ahead of me, I had to whip up a nice identity branding for myself and had only 2 days in my hand. Came to Yelp and found Dun-Wel and discovered an amazing individual called Guy! In one sentence - Guy is an absolute straight shooter, friendly, knowledgable, helpful and holds your hand into something that he does best - printing! He not only educated me with biz card design formats but also adjusted my digital asset, all for an incredible affordable price. It was an urgent job and he had me covered. Now he is my PRINT guy! All my print campaigns and company product sheets are going to him for sure. If you are in the Lakeview/Ravenswood/Lincoln Park area definitely go to Guy. And if you can drive to him, Dun-Wel should be your first attempt with anything to do with printing.

Really reasonably priced & great quality, with a wood backer to the print to hang easily. This artist has some really cool work, mostly Chicago based street photography with a colorful graphic art modification, as well as photographs. I just recently came across the storefront on Paulina & Milwaukee & was super excited! The small (hence the name Crawl Space) yet gorgeous gallery has a few more artists displayed now also, all Chicago based artwork with the same options for materials. This studio also functions as a print shop, I'm an artist myself and am looking into having a few things printed on their materials. I recommend stopping by or contacting online. Also great for gift ideas!
