My creative space



I am joining in with Thursday's My Creative Space at Kootoyoo.

From left:
  • Exciting printing gadget

  • Box of print lamps

  • Fine grade mesh

  • Instruction manual

This week the postie arrived with a large parcel. Inside was a carefully wrapped Print Gocco, accompanied by a lovely note.

A very close friend to delightful duo Parsley and Beet, had thought I might like a go. Now I know that Parsley and Beet's friend specialises in loans, but this particular one seems especially thoughtful. I am touched by such generosity ... and very excited.

So tonight I have laid out all the Gocco bits and pieces and begun studying the manual. I really can't wait to try some printing this weekend.

Thank you very much Kirsty for hosting My Creative Space. Its great fun seeing what everyone is doing. To see who else is showing their creative space (or to join in), head over here.

    I've been trying to justify purchasing a gocco for about a month now. Haven't thought of anything convincing though :)

  13. Oooer, can't wait to see the result! I'm desperately seeking a gocco stamp for printing cloth so I can give that a try.

  14. Another one here that would love to have a go, cant wait to see your results! Getting a gocco in the UK is nigh on impossible unless you pay good gold!

  17. Oooh...I too like many others are very jealous. My sister and I have been dying to get into some screenprinting for 'Mookah', and have thought that a print gocco is probably just the place to start for a beginner. Can't wait to see and hear what you get up to.

  18. Ohh have fun! Gocco are a blast! Can't wait to see what you do with it.

  19. I don't know why but I have always been a little scared of printing. Tell us how it goes. I had never heard of Gocco until 'My Creative Space' and it looks easier than traditional screen printing so I will watch with interest.
