HANDMADE HOLIDAY GIFT IDEA #104 // Kayrock Screenprinting: For the Paper-Chaser in Your Life
Dec 9, 2011
With the Handmade Holiday Craft Fair just around the corner, we're basically spending the day bouncing around and chattering about all of the cool stuff we're going to get. But we managed to calm our wildly waving arms to write another preview for you folks.
Karl LaRocca of Kayrock Screenprinting is a kind of printmaking superstar who's done band posters and books and whose work has been collected by MoMA. So when you buy his wrapping paper (which, incidentally, he made just for this event), you're buying artwork--even if it's just to wrap around that Yankee Candle you bought your great aunt Celia because you didn't know what else she might possibly like.
In addition to the wrapping paper, Kayrock will be selling cards, totebags, journals, totes, and, very excitingly, his minimalist Scrabble boards. We smell a new Christmas Day Scrabble game tradition.
