Heya!

I am a graphic designer and rubber stamp-maker based in Stockholm, Sweden and my shop has recently started taking BTC payments (aside from the usual Paypal checkout).

There are tons of awesome designs as well as option for customization.

As you might have imagined, people don't really think of BTC when they shop for handmade stuff online, but hey, why not? Stamp your business cards, books, mirrors and even your skin Smiley They make unique and personal gifts too!

Here are some of my designs - all under $30. Check out my shop (http://www.thisisjusttosay.co/) or my FB page (https://www.facebook.com/myrubberstamp) for more cool stamps, or contact me tyr@thisisjusttosay.co and ask for a custom stamp!

Hey! Yes, I accept Bitcoin (as well as Paypal).

Mmm, I've actually almost always been told that my prices are quite reasonable, since I carve all the stamps by hand (you can see a lot of pictures of the stamps in the making on my blog: http://tthisisjusttosay.blogspot.se/) and they are quite time-consuming.

They indeed cost more than machine-made stamps you find in craft stores or on Ebay; but it's more about the craftsmanship and original designs I think Wink

I understand and thanks for response.

You are right perhaps that to make one of those you need to spend a lot of time - so perhaps ~$30 is indeed not a big price.

I am recalling  what I told before. Price is not bad as for a handmade stamps Smiley

Good luck!

I really like your work. The "Urvädersgränd" tiger print is amazing! I don't need any rubber stamps now, but will drop you a line if I do.

By the way, just curious... Is there a way to correct a mistake when you carve? It would be a disaster if you slipped and chipped off something, near finishing a masterpiece.

Thank you! I'm very happy with the tiger print too. Urvädersgränd is the name of the street on the print; it's in southern Stockholm.

As for making mistakes - if it's a bigger print, you can usually find some way of working around it, maybe change the lines a bit. Since linoleum is quite hard, some people actually glue the chipped off piece back on, or use wood filler to fix the part.

But if you are making a small stamp, the mistake is usually irreversible (especially when there's text involved). So the only thing you can do is to be extra focused; otherwise you risk starting all over  Wink

Haha, good idea! Thanks!

I've written a bit about ink pads on my FAQ page (http://www.thisisjusttosay.co/pages/after-the-order-n-general-questions), with recommendations on supply stores/sites. Sadly I don't know any suppliers who accept Bitcoins  Undecided
