If anyone fancies one of these, I’ll have them available on ko-if as one-off supporter rewards tomorrow, Fates-willing.

(If you’re extra super keen, drop a note in comments and I’ll even send you a reminder when they’re live.)

As a special treat to myself I also printed a tiny bonus edition of 5 on black. Not sure what I’m going to do with these ones yet…

I love this! Beautiful print from one of my favorite songs!

loreandordure.com•49 days ago

Thank you!
One of the huge delights of working on this project has been finding other people who love the song as much as I do! 🥰

Yeah! It's one of four or five of her songs that legitimately changed my life.

She’s just wonderful, and not remotely as well recognised as she deserves.

A few little challenges along the way, and I’m sure many of my solutions are wildly inefficient, but honestly overall quite proud of the result & the problem solving that got me here!

They look amazing, I am so impressed (ha!) that you got this machine all fixed up & running along with learning a new skill.

Thanks! I’m proud of having ‘boostrapped’ myself this far with the book in one hand and a fair bit of muttering involved… 🤭

They genuinely have come out well. I think the inking and pressure are right (after a lot of trial and error!)

Gorgeous!

Plans and materials list:

An inexpensive drying rack can be made with a board and some springs.

loreandordure.com•49 days ago

Oooh! That’s clever that is! Thank you x

pandemoniumpress.bsky.social•49 days ago

Just posted the materials list - total cost is around $30 mainly depending on the cost of springs, and what wood you use for the board. I used scrap. Making my second one next week! 8)

That’s awesome, than you!
