POST A PRINT...an ideal gift

Post a Print
The Dekkle Post-a-Print is an printer's delight. For £35.00, you will receive an zinc plate, drawing needle, badge and a pre-paid envelope. You simple use the needle to create a drawing onto the plate, there is hand-printed instructions to guide you through so it is suitable for beginners to professionals. The plate is then returned to our Dekkle Studios where it will be carefully printed up and returned to you.
It all comes in a beautiful, dark blue presentation box.
These can be purchased directly from our Printmaking Studios on 2 Bell Row, High Street, Baldock, Herts, SG7 6AP or by contacting us via email, which is info@dekkle.com

Congratulations Tina and Jeff


We were asked to create wedding stationary for Tina and Jeff, a lovely couple who were recently wed. We designed and printed the whole range, from the invite, order of service and reply slips. Here are samples of the working drawings and the finals. We do offer a bespoke design service so please feel free to contact us with any questions or queries.

Here are some other things you may like...

I thought I would take this opportunity to show you some other samples from our growing portfolio of bespoke design work. These are samples that I have created for a Hannah Sharp, who is a freelance prop maker. These designs were used on her business cards, with the exception of the typewriter at the end.
If you would like more information or have any questions then please feel free to contact us at info@dekkle.com



Dekkle Advert in Clod Magazine

Clod comes to Dekkle.

We were fortunate enough to lend our printing skills and blocks to those fine people at Clod Magazine. A day was spent printing an insert that will feature in the latest edition of Clod Magazine.If you have not yet discovered the wonders of Clod Magazine then now is the time.

Tyne and Wear Printing Blocks

 
I printed up some 28 small printing blocks that were kindly donated to us by the Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums. They depict scenes from Yorkshire, ranging from historic landmarks to rural landscapes. Some of them have a narrative running through them, some of them are mysterious locations of stepping stones and rolling fields. There was even a small photographic plate of a reproduction of by Oliver Hall RA. Looking forward to using these in perhaps a workshop setting and this makes a great addition to the blocks at the studio. 






New Website


The new website is ready and set to go, kindly redesigned by Chris Smith. All information has been updated so please feel free to browse the pages. We have new additions to the website, such as the Artists and Publications page which feature printmakers that use the studio.
