What got you started crafting?

We/ve been crafting since art class in middle school (6th grade).



What is your source of inspiration?

The notion of blending the latest technology with the oldest technology. Woodblock printing is thought to be the oldest form of printing, laser etching is state of the art.



What have you made recently?

We've recently made a print from the very cute "Frong & Balloon" drawing by one of our friends, an artist by the name of Kimmi Kaplowitz. She gave us the drawing, we scanned in to the computer, cropped the image and etched it into a woodblock with the laser engraver. Now we can make woodblock prints of her drawing.





Why are handmade crafts important to you?

When things are handmade they are truly unique! We believe it is really something special to receive a handmade gift from someone.
