When I first heard about Elle Luna's The 100 Day Project, I wanted to join but I couldn't come up what I was going to do. I wanted this new project to be something focussed and as I finally decided to do handlettering I joined in two days later. Better late than never, right?!

I originally wanted to do the usual process - handletter to perfection, scan and edit every time but I realised that with my year of creative habits project and work commitments I wouldn't have time so I just look up for a lovely quote, write it in my sketchbook pages for couple of times and take photo (hence these slightly weird shadows and inconsistent grey backgrounds, which I kinda like anyway!).

Naturally, I am loving it! This project gives me a chance to really practise with handlettering as well as experiment with different pens and styles.

I am also pleased that through this project, I got commissioned by lovely Rebecca Desnos to handletter titles for her new e-book about natural dyeing, which I got really interested in from following her seriously beautiful Instagram account and want to give it a whirl. Stay tuned for more detailed post about this exciting collaboration.

Are you doing the 100 day project too? I'd love to see what you have done so far!
