  This class was AMAZING! Rebecca is a true letterpress expert and clearly a lover of all things antique. To see her personal work and studio alone, was a treat. Setting the type and sifting through her insane collection of type was fun. The prints we made look great and will hang in our house to remind us of a fun day!

  It was a nice taste of letterpress process. I'd never done it before. It was worth the money. Don't show up with a big agenda, just a 1-4 word phrase and a willingness to learn. Cardstock and ink are provided. Both are used for everyone in class because of time constraints. We used kraft paper cardstock and a green color ink. The press is dangerous so students do not physically run the press. You'll see why when you get there. But she does teach you how and demonstrate and explain all steps so you could do it on your own if you get a press. You do arrange all your type on your own and choose your fonts and arrange them. She helps whenever you need it. It's kinda like piecing together a puzzle. A handout with terminology is provided.

  Time went by pretty quickly in this class. It was really interesting to hear about the history and explanation of how printing was done. She has a love for letter press and its evident!!! Nice mix of people in class, from those wishing to learn this to enhance their business to those of us that were just dabblers. It was fun trying to pick out the size/style of the letters and trying to put everything together. I would definitely recommend this class.

  The printing press is very old and super cool. It was fun to be in a creative space and to learn more about the process. I wished the teacher would have spent more time talking about the history of printing and the specifics of the machine, as well as giving more clear instructions, but in all it was a positive, fun experience.

  This was my very first Dabble event. It was so much fun learning about the mechanics of letterpress and then actually getting to create some prints ourselves to take home. The class is small (6 people max) so you get to know the others in the class which is always nice. I'm looking forward to more workshops with RAR RAR Press in the future. Rebecca was cool, casual, and a fun teacher for the event, very passionate about her craft. Thanks RAR RAR and Dabble!

  I feel bad leaving a negative review because Reba was very knowledgeable and likable, but I found the class disappointing. I wish a photo was included that showed the final product. I thought it would be greeting cards with envelopes, but it is 5"x8" thick cardboard postcards- I'm not sure what they could be used for. Also, Reba chose the color red for everyone to print in. A few of us remarked that we would have liked to choose or at least vote on a color. What was most disappointing though is that Reba operated the machine for us. Part of the appeal was actually doing the process- all we did was line up our letters, then the teacher actually did the letterpress. The studio was uncomfortably cold. Many of us wore our coats. Finally, I had emailed the teacher two weeks before class asking about character and line limits. For this price, I wanted to be sure to print something that I could use. I never received a response. My friend is pregnant and also emailed the teacher, asking if the class is safe for pregnant women. She also never heard back but fortunately another friend was able to take her place. I love Dabble and have taken several classes, but this one was a disappointment.
