Today I have two very exciting announcements – the Ampersand Coloring Books are back in stock and I’ve also made a new set of bookmarks to sell! Keep reading to learn more about how to request one of the newly reprinted Ampersand Coloring Books if you had ordered one from the original run, as well as more information about the new bookmarks I just put together.
Last December I released the Ampersand Coloring Book in time for the holidays, but we unfortunately had a bit of a fail when we realized that the paper the book had been printed on was a coated paper that didn’t take to coloring very well. I reached out to DFTBA to see what we could do about it, and they were very helpful in working with me to reprint the books on uncoated paper that is perfect for coloring with markers, colored pencils, whatever you want to color with.
If you had ordered one of the original coloring books that was printed on the coated paper, DFTBA will send you a reprinted book free of charge. To request your new book, email hello@dftba.com with your order details and they will send you a new one right away.
If you hadn’t ordered one of the original books, the new reprinted books are in stock at DFTBA now just waiting for you to head on over and order one!
They sent me a few of the reprinted books to photograph, and I can definitely vouch that the paper is way nicer for coloring. If you get one and color any of the pages, definitely post your designs with the hashtag #ampersandcoloringbook and I can’t wait to see what you make!
And don’t forget that the Ampersand Coloring Poster is still in stock for if you want a larger piece of typographic artwork for your walls!
Moving on to the bookmarks, DFTBA finally ran through what they had in stock of the original bookmark set I had made a few years ago. So, I decided to update them a bit when I made new ones. The bookmark set now includes a typography drawing I did a few years ago, a photo of the reblog necklaces, a cropped version of the Ampersand Coloring Poster, the Buying Books design, and a cropped version of the Alphabet of Ampersands Poster.
Plus, I signed the back of one of the bookmarks per pack, so you can get something with my signature on it, and they’re only $5!
A few more photos that will end up on Instagram at some point…
I hope you guys like these new-ish merch products! Don’t forget to pick up one of the newly reprinted Ampersand Coloring Books for $20 or the bookmark pack for $5, or check out the rest of my store on DFTBA if you want to help support me further. Thanks for reading, and I hope you all have a great day!
