Alyson Beaton Design





Alyson Beaton is a Chicago based designer and what I like to think of as a modern day renaissance woman - she knits, she letterpresses cards and designs artist books. Her exquisite attention to detail and design gives her items almost their own grouping. One of her projects that has stuck in my head is her Baby's First Words letterpressed cards set.
Sold through Fawn & Forest, this beautiful set includes a letterpressed card for each letter of the alphabet, so that parents can indicate and a have a memento of each of their child's first words.
In a sea of baby books and such, this stands out on its own as something for new parents to treasure. I almost wish I had a kid so I had an excuse to purchase this!!
