May Day Studio

May Day Studio May Day Studio is a bookbinding and letterpress studio, started in 2006 in Montpelier, Vermont.

Kelly (me!) studied creative writing at California College of Arts and Crafts (San Francisco, California), where she took one letterpress seminar and was hooked! May Day Studio’s roots are in traditional letterpress techniques— including handset metal and wood type and handcarved linoleum—and we pride ourselves on finding the best and most eco-friendly papers and inks to stock our studio. Our jour

nals and albums are not only one- hundred percent acid free and bound by hand, but they’re designed by a writer and artist to feel good in your hand.
