Ubiquitous at boutiques and cafes, on Etsy and Pinterest, in stationery and home decor, the art of chalk lettering is hotter than ever. Valerie McKeehan, an Etsy standout whose work has been featured in magazines and websites from Good Housekeeping to RealSimple.com, teaches us everything we need to know to create gorgeous hand-drawn chalk designs. The book is also a practice space, with three foldout "chalkboards" the inside cover and foldout back cover are lined with blackboard paper.
Valerie McKeehan opened her chalkboard boutique, Lily & Val, on Etsy in 2012. She lovingly creates each piece entirely by hand, from sketch to slate, out of her home studio in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her website is lilyandval.com.
“We’ve all had handwriting envy before, but Valerie McKeehan
teaches us how to up our decorative doodle skills in her chalk
lettering book. Follow the steps and your letters will be swooping,
swashing, and stroking in no time!” –Justine
“In over 60 lessons, learn the ABCs of lettering (literally)…”
–Sweet Paul
