I know, I know, a good workman should never blame his tools, but getting started with the right tools can be make or break when it comes to learning calligraphy.
This calligraphy starter kit takes all the guesswork out of what you need and you won’t be wasting any more time searching for the right tools and supplies.
These high quality calligraphy supplies have been tried and tested by me - and my many students who have come to my modern calligraphy workshops.
And did I mention the box? It turns out that good things also come in pretty packages.
And because beauty shouldn’t be at the expense of being sustainable I’ve sourced a 100% recycled cardboard box which is decorated with vintage French ribbon, a vintage stamp and a botanical wax seal.
What’s Inside the Calligraphy Box?
This is where beautiful meets with practical, because it’s the small details that matter…
• Instruction booklet
• Speedball straight pen holder (for left and right handers)
• Pointed Manuscript G nib, made in the UK
• Black Winsor and Newton Ink
• 4 printed worksheets (upper and lowercase alphabet) including words to trace and copy + PDF download of these sheets to print out
• A5 Rhoda paper pad, perfect for calligraphy (choose from dotted or blank)
• 9 gift tags and twine for making some lovely keepsakes
Alphabet Practice Sheets
With these practice sheets you’ll learn how to make the basic strokes with a dip pen and ink, then write the lower and uppercase alphabet.
You can either write directly onto the worksheets and print out the PDF download that’ll be emailed to you, or put the sheets that you receive in the kit underneath the Rhodia paper to trace over.
Then you’ll trace some words and be ready to write your own on some beautiful keepsake gift tags.
