East End Press is a print and design studio based in the west end of Glasgow. We create colourful, handmade paper products which are always made from entirely recycled cotton pulp. Their products are all silk screen printed by hand, creating a luscious, rich look and feel. The brightness of colour and the slight misregistration of print is why they love screen-printing as a process, and what gives there products their unique aesthetic.
The business started in 2015 by designer and printmaker Ellie Hodesdon, with everything printed, made, and packed in Glasgow. A few years later, and the garland production line had massively outgrown the little screen printing and laser cutting set up Ellie had created in Scotland. The natural place to look to for manufacturing was Jaipur, the home of printmaking, so in 2018 Ellie travelled to India in search of printmakers who could create their products, e very manufacturer within the chain they work with are fair-trade; and registered with and independently audited by SEDEX, an international organisation ensuring ethical and responsible supply chains.
They aim to make beautiful, sustainable, fun homeware, stationery and decorations that add something interesting and colourful to your home
Their paper chain kits contains 160 strips of recycled, patterned pink and red paper strips which, when assembled, create ten metres of beautiful paper chains. Simply use glue or staple each loop to the next to create a classic party decoration. The paper is printed by hand on both sides so your paper chains always look great!
