Hand Lettering Made Simple
First of all, lets start off with how cute this spotted book is. It has these gorgeous gold trims on the corners that look so fancy I quite honestly don't want to even write in it. I love learning calligraphy on my iPad so I actually scanned them into my iPad so that I can practice forever without having to damage my book. You guys have no idea how cute it is!! Maybe one day when I find the pretty calligraphy pens I will get the nerve to actually write inside of it. For now I'll just keep on practicing on my iPad. I kept searching everywhere and all of the calligraphy books were so darn expensive-- literally hundreds of dollars to learn. I carry the book in my purse (book bag) everywhere I go and practice every chance I get. I cannot believe how easy ChalkFullofLove makes this look. I have actually gotten up the nerve to try my own hand at calligraphy and create things for my home. The book starts off with the basics from lowercase, to capitals and even numbers and works it's way to different strokes and actually creating full art pieces. For less than $20 you can try your hand at calligraphy and it's so much fun... not to mention relaxing! I put up a photo of the pretty cover and one of the evolution of designs to show you how she goes from simple to intricate. I also posted a photo so you can see one of the creations I made from practicing. I practice any chance I get and I love it. I hope that you do too! Don't wait...get your copy as soon as possible. I cannot wait to get hand lettering 201.
