So Impressed
★★★★★
I just signed up for the Beginner’s Calligraphy class/kit. So impressed with the box of tools, the package – every possible detail is more than you would expect. Super excited and hoping by this time next year I can address my beautiful Christmas Cards with my own calligraphy instead of someone else’s!
