Calligraphy

Monday, while I was browsing through my Google Reader, I read a post that featured some beautiful calligraphy. Calligraphy is a form of art that I am most passionate about. I'm by no means a creative person, and I hardly have a sophisticated appreciation of art, but I do love letters & I have nice penmanship, so calligraphy "speaks to me". 

After Lindsey's post sparked so much excitement in me, I went on a hunt for more calligraphy. I stumbled upon Love, Jenna, which wasn't hard to do since this lady's been featured in many publications, including Real Simple!




I love how calligraphy is so often tied to weddings. I am just such a sucker for romance. 



I'm thinking of taking a class in calligraphy. Wouldn't it be fun to write even half as lovely as these women?

  3. I will definitely take a class with you! I have been wanting to learn calligraphy forever-I tried teaching myself once and it was quite difficult. So count me in!
